................So , whats the scoop on these parts.............are they junk, not bad, good, or ?.......a buddy of mine wants to do a 440 with their parts.....i told him u get what u pay 4......thanks........kim...........
 
I be a little research on them. Sounds like they had problems in the past but getting better. I know there is a guy on ebay selling new rods for $79
 
pretty sure CAT is out of business....and a lot parts are being dumped on Ebay...
 
A few hundred dollars of their parts cost me thousands of dollars in repair!

Need i say more?
 
I have a set of their roller rockers... had one of the adjuster bolts break, then as I was adjusting them, another one broke.... I took them off and called and they sent me 3 adjusting bolts free. They were going to sell me a whole set for 25... anyway, they are still sitting in my shop all wrapped up.... I may put them on again but I would sure be leary of them....
 
Watch the metallurgy on the adjusters.Had a set of their rockers.Used crower pushrodz,wasted the ball ends.Looked like it wasn't tempered very well.
