Message: [QUOTE="Straubtech, post: 1349587, member: 23156"] I've made valve locks/keeper for years in this country. I have lost customers to overseas and lure of cheap prices. I recently got a customer back because of install height issues. They found out that cheap price of locks didn't make up for the extra hour it took to assemble heads. I've been in the industry since 1989. I have seen it change in many good ways but in many bad ways. Companies have sold out to investment groups who have taken great brands and trimmed the fat, source the product to cheaper labor overseas and in turn taken a quality part and destroyed it. I feel the consumer needs to be educated on what they are buying. [/QUOTE]
