There are 2 companies that I am aware of making the split valve guides, and neither one is made in the US. I know for a fact one is made in Taiwan (that's the one we sell) by an OE valve company. I'm not 100% sure were the second one is made. We've looked at both and felt the one from Taiwan was closer to the original drawing specifications.

The ones that I have used with the GN logo are good, much better than the old NORS and aftermarket ones from 70's - 80's.
