I recall a situation at Watkins Glen when some components from Paeco blew
apart on a friends car and come clese to causing serious injury. The cause
was poor quality. That supplier seemingly has a reputation of making single
sales to those new to racing. Based on hearing the same from 6+ fellow
racers, I have never had the desire to deal with them. I also am aware of at
least one instance where they rebuilt an engine for a Triumph which failed
due to the use of substandard parts. This goes back a few years and they did
not stand behind their work. Maybe they have changed since then.
BUYER BEWARE!
