That is what I am talking about, stop the sales first, then the marketing, then go after those putting your name on their stolen design, that stops the knock offs being used.

I am guilty of buying Speedmaster parts. Just this PPP Shifter look a like. It wasn't really that much cheaper and I did not do it because I was getting a deal. I had sent PPP emails and called them and couldn't get anyone to pick up a phone or reply and I was set on getting their shifter so I got a Speedmaster knockoff from Summit or Jegs but I did get a genuine Broader Valvebody kit for my C4 and it was worth it.... A beautiful piece.

I’ve seen the offshore small block head on the dyno with numbers down 50 compared to Brodix..did not respond to basic tune…
We are doing a bbc offshore head now for a boat motor., I’ll report numbers when done.

I don't know if "quarity" has improved but one fella I know bought some cheapie heads when those first came available. After just a few miles of running the valve seats were badly sunk. Heat treat? What's that?

But then those were not lettered with some reputable companies name. Be nice to have some lawyer take this on without cost to Jay and get a windfall reward to split with him.

Just read on Facebook the Summit response on the speedmaster valve bodies, they are going to destroy the valve bodies in stock, and contact those who bought them to resolve the copyright infringement

Summit is going above and beyond then and doing the right thing, I hope they do not take a bath on losses, but when you are a big part of the supply chain like they are, questions need to be asked and answered before stocking the parts. But I applaud them for taking action. The racers, and the original designer, engineer, supplier, and end user (along with Summit), suffers from the theft of not only the intellectual property, but possibly some innocent drivers in the other lane if they do not work the same, and the worst happens.

Kudos to Summit Racing!
