I have two sets as well, the 200cc iron and now the 220cc alum, mine look great, and aside from some minor casting flash here and there they are cast perfectly....
are you sure it isnt Pro Action thats having finacial difficulty? Pro Topline is a newer program...same people but I think Pro Action teamed up with these fellow's
www.topline.com.ar
I also believe that AFR was doing the work for Pro Action untill pro actions sales were out doing AFR, so AFR went and started selling thier own heads...I suspect thats when pro action became PTL....
to me thats why its hard to find the correct flow #'s for PTL, with AFR as a adversary some tests might be a lil bias...2wld4u
this is from PTL site.....they are very dominate in the years listed...then? what happened? hmmm....maybe those guy's at AFR started getting a lil upset? anyways..this is just my .02....I hope you get your problems resolved...I just wanted you to know that saying AFR is better when they use to do work for PTL is well.....you know...2wld4u
