Besides its Bowling Green, Kentucky home, the company maintains a factory in Mexico, two factories in Mississippi and one in Long Beach, California. Manufacturing for all locations is controlled by the BPCS manufacturing requirements plan (MRP) system. When Holley began acquiring other brands many of the manufacturers had to come under the BPCS umbrella.

Look, im not saying Holley is a bad,terrible product, its proven great in it's class,,my personal opinion is i prefer MADE IN USA on all my equip. Tools, Parts, ect. That's my opinion and i think a lot of Americans would agree!

I buy quality if possible most things are made in china now and in 10 year it will be somewhere else, thats the market for you, in the uk we have no car industry, ok we do make lots of honda's etc and have a great racing tradition in f1 and ralleying, simple because the quality went low and people carried on buying them and then the quality got even worse and people wised up. Buy american for sure but make sure the quality is good otherwise the long term future of these american companies is extinction.

I have had more good experiencces with Holley carbs than with Edelbrock carbs. The only thing I have found that runs well with the E carb is a 350 chevy. That is because they are calibrated to run on a chevy, pretty much anything else and you need to change things. if its a daily driver the FoMoCo carbs are tought o beat. If its a race car,a Holley will spank the E carb any day.


its to bad you guys dont run Qjets..

I like Edelbrock manifolds though, and some of the heads. As far as choice of those two intakes, not much difference IMHO

Yeah, outsourcing is starting to take its' toll on the mom and pop parts dealers. The little no name parts place here in my little town is forced to sell the Made in China parts just to keep their heads above water. There is very little we consumers can do about it except try to find parts that are truly made in the USA. That is getting harder and harder to find. Check out your new Mustangs, and see what I mean.
