Certainly not Aeromotive. Only reason that even shows up on the page is because it's a "keyword".

These are custom cheapos (not even knock-offs) I'm sure.

You can't even buy copper for motor windings for 81 cents.

Products like these are designed to LOOK like an already established product, not to function like it.

General Tso will rise again!!

Gonna be just like Russia. Paper Tiger.

News just broke that their GDP isn't even based on facts or real numbers- industry leaders were afraid to report losses or even modest gains to their government.

But I digress.

Yup, the cost to get stuff made overseas (not just China) is incredibly cheaper than in country.

Min 50 pcs. For what it takes to change a pump without cutting a hole, I wouldn't chance it.
