As stated you have to check where any product is made all the time. The Wix filters we have been getting ( Napa Also) have been made everywhere but the US. My Buick Wix filter (51040) is now made in china!
I went back to A/C Delco filters,still made by Champion labs. I went to my local dealer and all the filters on the shelf were made in USA. GM puts the blue filters on engines in new super charged Vetts, Camaros and CTS-V that make 600 + HP and warranty them for 60K. All crate motors including the 720 and now 1000HP BBC are all the Delco Blue filters. The term buyer beware has never been more true.
