They are good. None of my guys have ever had any problems. We used to get gear sets from them too. Now we're going to strait-cut gears. So we stopped buying from them.

Yup. Tom Conway runs the place. Decent guy. Ferg gets along with him extremely well. Give him a call and talk to him. |

Yeah. Tom Conway is a good guy. I had dinner with him and my guy, Al the other night. He's been in Costa Rica building a house and I don't think he manages any aspect of the company anymore.

Yes, Tom, his daughter Marie, and Matt are all great to work with. I have bought many many things from them, and they just completed a full rebuild on the 901 that was in my old six. I stop by there about once a week.
They come highly recommended from yours turely. Tell them I sent you, you may just get charged double (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif) Alpha, um how do I say this... your wrong (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) Tom's still running the joint, and is still in charge.

most of their gearsets are actually coming out of England right now.
If they offer you something used, that may be an actual porsche used gear... but used stuff is far and few between. you'll find most of their sales are actually new gears made in england. I talked to Matt at length during my J search. sounds like the new gears are of even a slightly higher standard than the one's porsche subcontracted out 30 years ago so no problems there. brant |
