    Are you talking about the Eagle that makes engine parts; cranks, rods, etc? If so, they are an American company but somed of their products originate in China.

    Their stuff isn't completly bad, you just need to check it out before assembly. I've heard their cranks often need a little more work to get the journals right as compared to, say, a Scat crank. There are no cast cranks for small block Fords being cast in the U.S., they all come from China. Just some have the finish machine work done here, most don't.

    I run Eagle rods in my car. No problems for the 5 years I've been running them.:)

    Eagle is also based in Memphis, TN. ive been looking at their rods for my 351w build but wasnt sure about them for the same reason. some people swear by their products, and others wouldnt take anything from them if u gave it to them :huh:
