Re: Summit "air gap" intake crappy quality??

My machinist prefers $100 cheaper Chinese manifolds over Edelbrock.He says he rarely gets an Edelbrock he doesn`t need to plane across the mating surface.He`s had no problems with the chinese ones.He offers both,too.He says most guys still want the name,and he adds the planing to the bill.
I`m not saying it`s the same manufactirer as whoever Summit uses.Just making a point that sometimes you don`t get what you pay for,then pay even more.It says made in China on the underside,too.
