With the current exchange rate with the US dollar very nearly 1:1 I can land a MSD6AL-2 here for around $100 less than local shops are asking.
Jegs and Summit have very similar prices and shipping costs any other options? Or best to stick with one of the big guys?

Do you want any warranty or tech advice from the vendor?
$100 is not a lot when something goes wrong..... |

In my experience, you rarely get that here from a vendor anyway.

Even with their excessive overseas handling fees, its far more enjoyable (and cheaper) shopping on American websites than having lengthy phone calls quoting part numbers and arguing with salesmen. I really cannot fathom why Rocket Ind. refuses to have a decent website, do they simply not want people's business?
