Aren't the Poulan blocks made in Germany also by Mahle?

I'm not German, but I'm a Deutchaphile just the same. Cut my automotive teeth working on and modifying VWs in the late '80s and '90s. Drove my '89 Golf GTI for 10yrs and some 200,000 miles. R&R'd just about every nut and bolt on that thing at least twice.

Sometimes though, you just have to wonder about them Germans. You know with all the FAG bearings and ASSMANN relays I've seen.
