RE: Cap and rotor
Standard Motors, GP Sorensen, Wells, OEM any of the forementioned preferreably with brass terminals. Otherwise, there is no difference other than price.

GP Sorensen suck, most OEM replacement use aluminum terminals. MSD uses brass ones.

As of today, I work for Wells in engineering. I have used their caps and rotors on quite a few racing motors because they're free and they work. I know the Wells premium line has brass terminals. But I forgot, some Standard Motors have cheap yellow coated steel terminals, my bad.

RE: Cap and rotor
No yer right. When you buy anything the first thing to do is check the country of origin on the outside of the box. If it's made in India, Taiwan, China, beware. Then take it out of the box and compare it to the old part. Don't be fooled by pretty colors. I've been to China over a dozen times and I have personally been to a few factories producing parts for those other guys.
