Yep...like Eagle, Scat.. All made in China.
It's depressing. Hard to find parts made in the USA these days.
Not to get off topic...but I read the following are also foreign made.
Eaton Valves=China
King Brgs=Israel
Sealed Power Valves=S.Africa
Mahle Pistons=Mexico/China
Manley Rods=Israel
S.I. Valves=China
Eagle/Scat=China
Ferreas Valves=Argentina
Speed-Pro Race Valves=Brazil
Zoom Clutches=China
Delco Parts=Singapore
K-B Pistons=Mexico
Callies=Japan
I'm the culprit running the OBX's.
The quality is quite good. I've had them on for a year now in Dec. No issues,no cracked welds, etc.
Minor install/fitment tweaks. Hard to beat the price though, about 1/2 of ARH & Kooks. Bash away, I'm happy with my purchase.
The supplied H pipe options are with or without resonators,no cats.
I have the OBXs and fit finish are excellent. The flange plates are actually thicker than the JBAs[10 mm vs 3/8"]They are supposedly JBA clones and have a good design. I think if the slave labor in China that makes them is beaten regularly, they do a pretty good job on the fitting and welding.
I plan on headers next year and I plan on spending thousands $$$$$$$ just to be sure I have better headers than anyone else. Maybe platinum plated! Jewelled header bolts too.

Buy AMERICAN people what the heck. American racing ,KooKs ,Stainless Works, Slp and Jba. Yea and install them yourself, and be proud of your work.That is what an American would do.

Were you holding a little flag while you were typing?

I like that idea. Maybe we should do that with the school kids.
