It's easy....
Pay the laborors $30.00 a month, Flood the market to drive the others out... Once you own the market, raise the price to OEM Mahle or Kolbenschmidt prices for the same crap..... Ken |

In the past week I have had three people give up on these sets due to uncontrollable oil consumption as well as head/cylinder sealing issues.
I solved their problems. |
