Cheap does not always mean good. I have used the Professional Products rails and customers have cracked the rail or pulled the threads out of them.

These rails only fit their intake not the factory style intakes.

I did not crack my Pro Products rails, but I had been
warned on here so I was real careful with the torque.
No weepage, been on for close to a year now I think.
You should probably baby any aluminum rails.
