Right that's true. My point is though of those so called "fake" transistor types, millions are sold. What's the failure rate? Do you know? I don't. Whose to say they are all a bad design or all cheaply made? The parts stores have been selling them for years and if they were all the total POS boxes some people say, we'd know it. I mean, I can argue TTI headers are pieces of CRAP based on the absolute FACT that LOTS of people have had to beat the snot out of them to get them to fit, or some didn't fit at all. Same with the Eagle cast steel crankshafts. "SOME" had trouble breaking, but not a TON, or else we'd see it all over the net. You know as well as I do that bad news travels ten times faster. Those Hi Rev 7500 boxes for example, like the one I have and several members are running. While it appears they do have the so called "fake" transistor, I've not seen piles of them failing, Have you? All I've seen of those are good reports so far, including me. Believe me, as closely as we are to the Mopar pulse, we'd know it if there were mass failures and we haven't seen it. So that tells me there's at least ONE source out there for "good fake" transistors. So sure, they might be a different design, but they're certainly not all bad by a very large margin. Here's how I look at it. Even back in the day when REAL quality made in USA parts were available everywhere, most Mopar guys carried around at least a spare ballast resistor and ignition ECU in the trunk. SO what's changed? Nothing. Yeah, there are crap parts floating around for sure, but as long as you do the same as we did thirty plus years ago, you'll be fine. I have that hot little point distributor that you built up for me, a spare ignition box and ballast resistor ridin around in Vixen's trunk. It's always been like that so I rock on with it. Even the "good stuff" has a failure rate.
