China made Holleys?

[Bill.S]

I wonder if the price will drop since the costs will?

The price of "original" Holleys will probably go up. At least at first.
I guess no more new Holleys for me.

Be sure and tell everybody you know that Holley carbs are going to be made in China. I will never buy another one...

Most everything that is 'Made in America with Pride' is assembled with parts made in China. Welcome to the world economy. It sucks dont it. Even those who claim they use 100% american parts, are using some sort of machinery or parts from china at some point.

China does everything cheaper and often times better. I've seen the factories and plants in person. It's an amazing sight to see.

I buy American when I can, but its getting hard.

If you only knew how many engine parts are made there, you would shit.
Have you seen the "Polished Aluminum-Looking Chevy intake manifolds, oh for $120.00 ? Yep, they copied a Edelbrock in China.
There are Cheap China HEI distributers, Roller Rocker arms, timing sets, I Beam and H Beam connecting rods, all of the cranks under $800.00, oil pans, valve covers, carb bodies,,,the list goes on.

Buy American!
and Save your buddies ass and job.
