In my honest opinion OS engines are being made cheaper and cheaper with each model, but the prices just keep getting higher. Look at the FL.70. Do you really think a FL .70 will outlast a Magnum .70. You mention OS has been making ABN clyinders for years, do you not remember the peeling episodes a few years ago.[sm=drowning.gif] IF what you say about the nickel is true loughbd, OS would be useing nickel in there ultra Performance engines like the .12TZ, .21VZ-B, .46VX-DF and many others, but they do not.[sm=confused.gif] They use True ABC sleeves with these.[sm=confused.gif] OS knows what they are doing, they know the nickel will not hold up. That makes me ask this question. Is OS trying to cheapen the other engines[sm=confused.gif] It would appear that way, when allmost every other manufacturer uses Chrome with all there non-ring engines, not just some of them
