A few years back, our union was selling jackets with their logo on them. Got one and looked it over. Made in Vietnam. I'm sure it was a union shop in Hanoi. Yeah, right.

Never worked with one so can't say , I use the S&S or Jims and do a proper port job on the case hole with a degree wheel to get the open & closing dead nuts. Really helps with bigger engines.
