There are some parts where there is only one supplier and all of the dealers have to go to that supplier for that part. For example the 5.5 head is only made by Snyder's. But there are other parts where there are 2,3,and sometimes more suppliers for the same part (an example of that would be gaskets, springs... And there can definitely be a difference in the quality of the parts from any of those suppliers.
