From what I've seen people still use the Comp OE replacements or Morel's if you're baller. Just what I've seen though, don't have personal experience.

I'm with you on this one. I'm a fan of the Comp OE replacements at this time. ::knocks on wood::

Not unless they go out, or you are in there (aka head swap )
