Made in the USA

Made In The USA

Made In The USA was always something near and dear to my heart. With the 4th of July just celebrated, we felt there was no better time to express our thoughts on why “Made In The USA” is of utmost importance to us as a header manufacturer. To say that our world hasn’t changed to the point where nearly everything we buy is made outside our country would be like saying gasoline is really cheap these days. We’re at a point where certain items just aren’t manufactured here at all. For many Americans, this is an incredibly frustrating fact and one that affects our country a great deal.

At least since my days as a young hot rodder, there was a slow and steady influx of performance parts made in China or Taiwan that found their way into our speed shops. They were cheap and from my experience, you barely got what you paid for. We knew these parts were inferior then and as far as we’re concerned, especially as it relates to the exhaust industry, they are just as inferior today.

The success story that is American Racing Headers is twofold. One is our relentless pursuit to meet or exceed our customer’s expectations in quality and performance. Second, the philosophy that we can, cost effectively, manufacture our products entirely in the USA with only US sourced materials. We’re blessed to be in an industry that allows us to go nowhere but within our borders to proudly design, manufacture and sell our systems. The byproduct is unmatched quality that has the whole world talking. Thankfully, many performance enthusiasts refuse to settle and if you’re reading this newsletter, you’re probably one of them. We sincerely thank you for making American Racing Headers what it is today.

We wish you all a great summer! ---- Nick Filippides, Owner

Thanks for the post Nick. So many (for so many years) have been concerned with the bottom line rather than product reputation. Anything regarding treated metal that is Made In China is (in my experience) a cheap piece of unreliable junk. Their tools suck. Their pipe fittings suck. Their mower blades, nails, screws, and plumbing fixtures suck.

Thank you for sticking with American materials and American workmanship. Makes me wish my LFX could use headers. God bless America!!!!!

Having bought many made in the USA headers over the years I can say without a doubt the ARH 1 7/8" primary SS headers I bought from ARH for my '10 SS are the best I've ever had. Quality piece, you get more than you paid for.
