What about the heads, intakes, ignition systems and the hords if other Chinese crap everyone is buying. Even most of the parts "claimed" USA made still come from China and other places first

You may as well get off that train cause USA made don't mean chit anymore.
Like I said before whether people want to admit it or not you've got something off shore on or in your engine whether you like it or not. You're in the wrong hobby if you're worried about it.

I find usually the ones that squawk the most drive a foreign car with a USA sticker on it. Talk about hypocrites.

What all this really boils down too is people are too cheap to buy the good stuff. While I understand budgets and everyone is different, it doesn't mean one method or another is right or wrong.

Don't be "everyone".

Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.

Every dollar NOT spent on Communist Crap is a win for our economy.

I'll pay extra if I have to for U.S. made products. I try to buy from local businesses. Asking is it made in USA?

I agree, just funny to me how people here want to cry about it and likely don't realize they are doing it themselves anyway.
