The problem with the Comp stuff is it's out of Mexico. Dunno about Manley.

Is that just springs or is that the cams to?

Okay, so I did a little digging as to the whereabouts of where Manley Nextek springs are manufactured. I got the number to their division of the Barnes group that handles Manley's valve spring production: the guy said they're made in Plymouth, Michigan. He also said that the Nextek springs' manufacturing process shares nothing in common with the Comp Beehives.
