Unfortunatly they are mostly made in CHINA... the final fitting and final sizing is done here in the USA.

The only good thing is that K1 Tech was bought out by Dover-PMI Group which also owns Innovate, Wiseco Pistons and JE Pistons. In fact these rods were sold to me on a deal from my Rep at Wiseco Pistons... But as far as Dover-PMI, as a whole they own alot of big names in the racing world and so far they have proven to keep a very tight leash on their overseas factory QC.

They are made from E4340 Billet material.

Here is more info on Dover-PMI.

Orginally K1 was started by a guy named Tom Molnar. He worked at Oliver connecting rods for a long time... Started K1 and then sold it to Dover-PMI.
