Change is happening! I got interested in PCV valves, decided to check out prices, and picked up some inexpensive Autozone valves, one for my 76 280Z. And surprise, surprise, they're made in USA. $2.99, on the low side for parts store prices. No idea on quality, it looks fine, but who can really tell if their PCV valve is in-tune. I'm surprised that there are so many varieties, they have the same outer body, but different applications. The internal spring rate is different, I assume.

We should start a Made in USA thread just to see what's out there.

I think that as you get older - you are ABLE to pay for higher quality and better service. With the disclaimer - - There is no longer the more or less direct correlation between Price and Quality, th

well that is certainly true, but I have never liked buying junk. I would do without and save my money if I wanted something better, rather than settle for less quality. Now I take things to an illog
