Kanter Auto Products?
Does anybody have an opinion of Kanter Auto Products engine rebuilding products as a possible source for Oldsmobile engine parts? I am in the process of rebuilding my 1966 442 engine and I am wondering what other people think.

Kanter specializes in stock replacement parts. They are not inexpensive. If all you want is a stock rebuild, they are fine.

I would shop around.

Kanter has a good selection, but they tend to be pricy.

I also believe that all of their suspesion parts are made overseas.

Engine rebuild kits from Kanter are a bit pricey. You can sometimes get the same thing from Summit cheaper. Although, Kanter does have harder to find parts.

Open up a Summit or Jegs magazine and compare prices.. Kanter thinks that $44.00 is the going rate for a SINGLE piston for a 400
