"Okay " for a while. You get what you pay for.

Installed and with minimal tweaks/adjustments the truck runs pretty well. Within a few weeks there were problems with cold and warm starts and dead spots appeared when accelerating. Been messing around with it, checking other things (timing etc) and just couldn't get it to work properly again. I brought my old (OEM Ford) in for a rebuild ($250) and the truck is working like clockwork again. I think maybe for $75 or so it wasn't terrible but the durability/quality is just lacking. You get what you pay for.

Pros
