Why so many ads for stock worn out parts or even worse aftermarket POS stock parts allowed in the High Performance section?

Today in the first 3 pages more than half of each page was for stock parts. If I wanted to see stock parts I would go to the designated section or the general section, I do not think used 40hp parts or 6V starter cores qualify as performance.

What gives?

People think it's for all engine parts and I cannot police it to the level needed.

The truth is it probably should be renamed
Engine/High Performance
not
High Performance/Engine
due to this issue.

I would recommend two separate sections:

Stock engine/trans

Performance engine/trans
