Default Compstar Internals?

How do these things compare to say, Scat, Lunati, Eagle?

After reading their homepage these products seem to be pretty damn high quality. Trying to find a set of strong and long lasting internals for my setup.

Tony.

The Compstar rods are very good. We use them on all of our engine builds, very good quality. Bob

I have never seen any pricing on these things. I always just wanted look but nothing was priced. The make cranks too don't they? Never even seen anything mentioned about them either.

My question is were starting to learn that most items are made in the same factory in China just rebaged with different specs. I dont know exactly how true this is but it makes you wonder about the big names and where they came from before they were stamped such and such.
