Honestly, the other day when I saw the Fesler post I initially thought the same thing. It is true that they are different since they are still solid but similar nonetheless.

RB is top notch. I like the Fesler stuff too. The ones that frustrate me the most are the companies that don't appear to have any interest in the industry besides copying someone else's designs and making a buck off them. I guess technology makes it all to easy with machined parts these days. I won't name companies but I think we all see them in the industry. It seems to really be an issue on the performance parts side of things, e.g. intakes, blocks, etc. And now there are a few making billet pieces very similar to products from Clayton Machine, RB, Marquez and even Fesler. IMHO I don't feel that Fesler falls into the category of these others design thieving companies. However, in this case these are similar and I'd agree that RB has a point.
