One thing of note about LMC, they were purchased about a year or two ago by
one of the two big parts suppliers of British cars, Victoria British. Moss
(the other big supplier) and Vicky Brit have a reputation at times to use
what ever parts they can get ahold of, ie less than top quality stuff that
is made in Taiwan or other places.
I have not ordered from LMC since they were purchased to be part of the
Vicky Brit line of parts products, and it has been a long couple of years
since I ordered anything from them for my Austin Healey. Like most large
parts houses, it can be a mixed bag, you can benefit by the larger customer
base by getting special hard to find bits; you can also get the short end
of the deal when they go with lowest bidder.
