Wow David, you're right. First thing you want to do before attempting no leaks with one of those things is to go to church...

I see a lot of people moaning about chinease junk and its slightly unfair really, They will copy and supply exactly what is asked for, If you specify cheap thats what you get, However if you specify quality you will get it, Its not the chinease you need to moan at but the firms that are giving them the drawings and spec i'm afraid.

The Chinese have a reputation for cheating on the quality of a product as time goes by also. Metal quality in crankshafts comes to mind. That's why Callies teamed up with Compstar.

Ditto on that Chinese Crap. I installed a March System on the coupe when I was building it. I just noticed while installing a new fan that the water pump rear plate is rusted over. I plan to contact March and express my thoughts. I paid a hefty sum for that system and even if they agree to replace the pump,can you imagine the work to pull the front end off and change it out??? A dollar to a doughnut that it's Chinese manufactured.

It's called "Fine china"...... Not!
