You have to take everything from Terry with a grain of salt though. I do agree he is chalked full of very good technical knowledge and experience. Don't get me wrong!
However try explaining how it can be "hit or miss"
I can understand a bad batch on a small production run of a certain piece, but hit or miss meaning a specific random occuring problem through quality control covering countless separate production runs going over a decade.
ya know... if I had a shop specializing in duratech/cd27 platform cars, I'd think that this could be a very good marketing ploy.
I personally don't believe Terry is holding some 'golden nugget' of inside info. More likely, just feeding fire to the flames by infering so. And lets face it, as far as the mechanic is concerned, the less educated the customer the better, right? It's just a way to scare more ppl into beinging their projects to him... marketing ppl.... plain n simple.
