Dave and MatthewBrum;

Agreed, it appears they may be trying to break into new markets. I don't see them being successful at it unless they can get into NASCAR. There are so many suppliers for American iron I just don't see it being a good move. What do I know, I am just a business consultant and tax preparer. Guess thats why they pay for market research; excuse me, why WE pay for market research which has nothing to do with the engineering research we are paying for as well. Dave it just boils down to the Porsche tax. I know lots of V8 guys and they are not going to buy a Mahle piston without a long expensive marketing effort over many years. Guess we will have to wait and see how things develop.
