Made in the U.S.A Challenge!
 
Well, I am not trying to start a Bash China thread. So don't do it, please.
I think it would be great for the members, to know what diesel performance products are made in the U.S.A. Some might be wanting to make sure there dollars stay in this great country.
So this is not a thread to start arguments. This is a thread for all the manufacturers, distributers and sales teams to shine, with what they have, that is Made in the U.S.A!
Canada and Mexico does not count right now.
So please take the challenge and tell us what diesel performance products are made in the U.S.A

I always try to buy Made in America products if given a choice. I have turned down many good "deals" because of the "Made in (insert foreign country of your choice)" stickers on them.

It's hard to do all the time, but I try to keep my stuff Made In America, too. :usa:

It is hard. Nobody has an Idea what Diesel Performance parts are made in America?

In terms of chips or tuners, it's hard to say because there are so many components that could come from anywhere. I don't know one way or the other.

South Bend Clutch is American Made!

RevX oil additive is American Made! And it's also a green product, too.

Grand Rock Stacks are American Made! You just have to be sure you're getting genuine Grand Rock Stacks and parts, because there are some foreign stack knock-offs that are being sold with their kits as Grand Rock when they aren't, and are sold way cheaper, way cheaper quality and less durable. A Grand Rock Stack is triple plated, the first two are heavy duty nickel plating and then the last layer is highest quality chrome, coated outside and inside. This all protects the steel completely. There are even chrome chrystals at the tip and bottom, where you can see the chroming is a complete coat, no gaps or places missed.

We want to sell American Made products as much as possible. I'm interested to know what other stuff is American Made, too! :usa:

I'm looking at this thread with interest. Knowing that "made in the USA" especially for diesels is difficult. Bosch has almost a monopol on IP's.
Those Kikki, Denso and other brands are now niche products.

If you go through the Bosch catalog there is nothing they do not produce. But outsourcing also takes part here. A lot of parts are not made in germany- they are also produced by little people with blue overalls- under german supervision.

So far MSD is made in america- El Paso,TX and as I know they get into the Diesel market with their propane injection kit.

Did a little research. As far as my mods are concerned, the Jake Brake, AEM intake, AFE Blade Runner (i'm pretty sure), Edge Juice, Summit Exhaust (made by Borla [309 stainless] to Summit's specs in 2004), Air Dog, HTT Turbo, Pro Comp tires, and South Bend clutch are all Made in the USA. :tu:

Don't know about the DDP injector nozzles (Bosch parts modified in the USA?):humm:

Damn truck assembled in MEXICO though!:argh:

Be careful with clutches. There are only a handful of clutch producers worldwide. Rebranding is very usual and common.
It is funny to find the tiny "Sachs" logo on most of those so called race brands.

There are a large quantity of products assembled in the USA. But most of the parts are from other countries.
Fords are being assembled in Mexico, so don't feel bad.

Oops! I messed up! The poll closed! I can't fix it!
Sorry Bombers!

Some of Airdogs fittings are made in China.

I know Expandit Exhaust and Diamond Eye Exhaust is made in the USA.
