Why do you use Chinese crank and rods in such a top notch engine?

Obviously an insult to the car owner and to the 1.3 Billion Chinese people.

No insult intended to anyone, just why would you by pass an American made performance parts manufacturer

Actually, Keith Craft makes the decisions on my engine build. I, like you would much rather buy American, and until you asked, I thought Eagle was made in the states. (I thought SCAT was Chi-Com made).

But I am not going to go tell a master chef what ingredients to use in my dinner. I did upgrade from an iron crank to the steel, which seemed like a no-brainer. At the end of the day I want the engine builder to be comfortable with the build, as much as I want to be comfortable with the build. These DynaTek systems are new, and I don't want the entire build to be a learning curve.
