Telling people where to buy parts for the reason you specified is not a good pratice. Telling people wether buying parts from the two companies would be cheaper, well that's the guy I'd want to talk to.

If you guys review my reply, I MENTIONED APE as well....

Now I order the majority of my gaskets and all I can from Z1, why you ask, because Jeff is a good guy, well sure but if he sold me junk... Sorry Jeffy!

I buy cause I get good service, quality parts and good prices on everything I've purchased so far... Example, just had some more head work accomplished so need a new head gasket for which I converted over to single gasket.

OEM is a two piece design with rubber timing channel gaskets (leaks)... plus I upgraded my build to a 1015cc kit... Well, Z1 has the one piece for the job and it is a Wiseco gasket to boot. SCORE!

Not to mention OEM parts are triple the costs...

As for the complete timing chain components, even though APE, I found cheaper elsewhere. Sorry Jay, not trying to start a war here for your company still received my money one way or the other but I have found APE products cheaper elsewhere other then your website.

If the manufacturer's didn't list their goods for more than others. Who would carry the manufacturer's products?
