<VV> Non Destructive Testing - No Corvair

[Larry Forman]

Hi Jim,
So are you saying you effectively use this for checking cranks for possible 
cracks replacing professional Magnafluxing?
Having just paid over $100 for checking 5 cranks (and at a reduced price 
too) this would be great, if it is an effective and reliable alternative 
process.
