I just posted this article/site on another thread and decided it was worth posting on its own thread. The proliferation of
these counterfeit parts with cheaper prices can lead many builders to believe they have bought a reliable name brand .
My suggestion is to NOT purchase your electronic or fuel system parts from anyone but well known companies.


Counterfeit Automotive Products - Hot Rod Magazine


Since I'm using a link to their site, I'll give them a plug......All you guys thinking about using an automotive engine....there is some good

applicable stuff that you can find in their magazine.


Added later: Anyone who knows of specific counterfeit items or problems with them....please tell us about them.
