Speedmaster heads

I just recently had someone tell me the speedmaster heads are known to crack and have valve seats fall out. Has anyone had either of these issues with the olds head from them?

Mark Remmel builds them and hasn't had any issues like that. Figure we would've heard of them by now.

I've been running a set for ~5 years. No problems.

Yeah, that's what i kinda figured. If it was happening we would have seen it here. Honestly I think the guy just hates anything not made in the USA. I get it to a point but I couldn't wait for months and bought mine bare to build them the right way

Thanks. I didn't expect to here anything bad about the cracks or seats falling out. Just figured I would ask in case I missed it somewhere.

I’ve prepared and/or run probably 30 sets, no issues.
