I think regarding prices whats happening is we believe that a good engine has to cost over $400, the bench mark being set by most of the European engine makers.. While the Euros make awesome engines the Taiwanese make them just as good ! The ISO rating for Go Factory is the same as Novarossi being ISO9001 ...
Being cheaper dosent mean they arent as good , i think they are just well priced , and for the price you get a world class engine. I think for a new company to make a name for its self it needs to pull out all stops and produce something thats competitive in the market place. Go have done this with their range of engines , well priced and well made.

If you think about it a stroker kit for a 383 chev costs about $550 USD ... Why should a micro engine cost that much when it uses less and one 30th of the material to make ? Just putting it into perspective , the answer is it dosent ...
