I completely understand where your coming from..and I test a lot of things for people and customers..as for me I run all American made in my cars except for these heads to see how they performed and they did well..a lot of people as I said look for the best bang for a buck..I've served my country for many years and I wouldn't love more than keep them over there and us where we belong..as a supplier I see so much stuff that claims to be made here and its really Not..you would be sick...trust me 90% of what is in your and my motors may have a well known name ..but believe me..the cores,metals,etc are from other than here..companys use that slogan made in USA..to keep people buying..but like I said I do Agree with you 100%..
