A few years ago DA published the sources of their engine parts. The best you can say is that they are assembled in the USA. Not made in the USA. DA may have their parts made to better specs and better QC, but 80%+ were made outside the US. Quality control is the issue. Not what country the parts were made in. I'm with 3136. I rotate planes so my engines should last a lot longer. Not much WOT.
