Johnny,
Regarding Investment Casting. Provided the metal treatment meathod is sound. I am very familiar with the process and it is satisfactory. The product is usually pretty darn good with Investment Casting. However, I've seen Induction Forged Steel w/no Re-Melt. The microstructure was incredible. Nothing short of stellar. Diamensions where incredible, so was the fit of the parts.
