It does not say where they are made. With only two reviews, one bad and one good may be prudent to wait and see.

I wouldn't bother with stainless unless you live in the rust belt... in which case your truck is ****ed either way. Get the $85 ebay ones and call it good.

Plus the pipes on the IH and Dorman kits are already stainless, just not polished. Collector part is always cast iron.
Of course if they sold a glass firewall so I could see them shineys I might just consider it....

^^ so true these were not for me but for one of the work trucks (already has Dorman up pipes) but thought it was nice to have polish stainless pipes.

Commandment #16 in the Powerstroke Owners Bible: "Thou shalt not buy shiny things for your Motor, for they will rust, and be covered with oily abominations, causing you to voice loud lamentations...." Amen

The $85 ebay up-pipes fit as good as the stock ones that came off.... and do not appear to be leaking after 200 miles of use.
