Larry Hardy has forged CP's for them, though Shaker Prods.
Was unaware of the KB's being offered. :smile:

I put a set in about a month ago but it wasn't a 110. It's getting cold here so I won't know how they hold up 'till next year. Car guys are saying nice things about them so we'll see. piston prices are going through the roof.

Raw material costs are getting out of control in some cases. My company took a pretty siginificant margin hit a couple of years ago when the price of solder went through the roof. We were still using wave solder machines at the time.
