Its a pick and choose deal , I've been getting mine from suburban since the
generics came out, installed approx 20 of them , two that I know of came
back , the last one was last week and its been in set since last march , so
I guess its 6 of one or half dozen of the other . If the original is NLA
what other choice do we have , but if you use these don't just replace the
block , be sure to invest a little time and replace those HV caps at the
same time and resolder those hot connections , that way if it does go bad it
don't take long to put in another block those ptk169 chasis are hard to beat
