While the general best practice is to go genuine with replacement parts, I'm keen to hear people's experiences with non-genuine stuff like radiators, electrical stuff, water pumps, gaskets etc.
My personal experience is hit and miss with non genuine stuff but a few years back I fitted a non gen starter motor to my SS for half the price of a genuine one and it was quieter and spun up the engine twice as fast as the genuine one I replaced. Hasn't missed a beat since fitting it so would definitely recommend one.
Are non genuine products getting better as technology permeates lesser manufacturing countries etc?
