The knock offs look exactly like the Walbro... all the way down to the name stamped on the body. I don't know this vendor so I couldn't say. I will say that fueling is one thing where it's absolutely not worth saving $40 by going to an unknown shop or ebay seller. This stuff happens all the time, the big deal here was that a lot of them were tested and found to flow half that of what was claimed and have very high failure rates. There are also knock off Bosch and RC injectors which have been popping up here and there but they're not nearly as common as the knock off Walbro pumps. Remember, there's nothing that's going to kill your engine faster than a fuel shortage.... well short of completely draining the oil and hitting the track.
