Eaton Valves : China
King Brgs : Israel
Sealed Power : S. Africa
Mahle Pistons : Mexico/China
Manley Rods : Israel
S.I. Valves : China
Eagle/Scat : China
Ferreas Valves :Argentina
Speed Pro : Brazil
Zoom Clutches : China
Delco Parts : Singapore
Keith Black Pistons: Mexico
Callies : Japan
Professional Products: China
Weiand Intakes : Cast in China, machined in US
JE Pistons : cast in Malaysia, machined in US


That's skimming the surface probably...
Very interesting Brent.
I'd love to see the opposing list of parts/MFG's that are not being out sourced over seas or to Mexico. Have you got that one handy?
