You are talking rubbish, a lot of the cheaper speed parts might be from mexico, KC did my engine and it was well over $20k for a custom built race engine, I dont think Jesel, Sony Bryant, JE, Carrillo are made in Mexico.
Dart blocks might be I guess it depends on where the factories are!

I use a Jerico five speed my decision was made as I wanted a decent trans that will handle road racing and limited road use, Tremec are a road transmission and have had early quality control issues, and made in mexico did sway my decision.

If I buy something USA is normally my preference, French or German for tools etc as their iron ore is renown especially France. Not keen on mexican or chinese, but My 27" Imac computer was assembled in China and it hasnt given one problem in 7 months. A friend of mine has a large chinese lathe 40years old and still going well.
