I worked for SCAT as a buyer and bought the rods and various other components. SCAT owned the molds for the H-Beam rods and we were having them poured up in the valley. We never had any quality problems, core shift etc. All the machine work was done in house in Manhatten Beach CA. We did very little outsourcing (off shore) of components. All the cast cranks we machined were raw castings that did in fact come from abroad.

I used SCAT rods in my Super Stock 360 and never had any problem.
