It appears that they had some problems in the past for sure. I see that they have a new company wisco to make their pistons now with a new process and rings. They say they are quieter now and some other claims. check out their pod casts.

If I remember right they had CP making their pistons before, CP sure isn't junk. I'm a firm believer that you can't polish a turd.

I see you have head quarters parts, but dont they use revolution performance cylinders and stuff?
It says that their #1 preferred method is to use revolution performance cylinders if I read that correctly.
