I have won the AD lottery with the recent recall of the ECI Classic cast cylinders.
I am now in the process of replacing the 4 jugs on my engine. ECI is offering me a 50% discount on new Titan nickel cylinders. That puts them at a really good price. But my question is are they worth it?
Are ECI cylinders decent as I am already having to replace all 4 1000 hours before TBO due to the AD saying they suffer metal fatigue, what are the chances that 1000 hours down the road I have to replace all of them again. Would it be better to fork over the extra money now (about $2500) and go with another brand and what brand?
