Alright guys, did a little research when I was at work today on the common copper plugs available for our cars, and where they are made at.
Motorcraft - USA
Autolite - China (formerly USA, but still designed in USA)
Bosch - Brasil (formerly Germany, but still designed in Germany)
Champion - USA
Hope this helps clear up any questions!Last edited by murphmobile2; 01-23-2009, 05:49 PM.1984 Ford Crown Vic LTD, The Murphmobile (RIP)
