The Chinese can do whatever quality level you are willing to pay for.

Correct.
The quality level of my Chinese wife is exceptional.
@Michael McKelvey Thanks for the Idea for shipping my core back Mike
@DannyP Hey Danny do you have. IRS or a Swing arm? Because he said he uses Peloquin LSD for IRS and GT LSD for Swing Arm with the 3.44 Ring & Pinion. Either of I have herd of but maybe you have. I guess he builds some Transaxels for Greg at VM
Arden that's exactly the information I was looking for. Yes, I have swing.
GT is Guard Transmissions(Paul Guard), they make good quality stuff.
Thank you @Former Member

There isn't a VW aircooled listing, but I have spoken with Paul. I think his name is actually Pablo, his name on thesamba is "gears".

Welcome to the "global village".
It’s not so much where they’re made, but with what, and how. Many “Italian” bikes are made in China, as are many BMW models. It’s all in the QC.
I recently emailed GT to inquire if they were going to build a Type 1 IRS diff. He told me he was waiting to see how the 091 diffs sold. His work looks really nice!
For those of us with a swing axle, that want to have a Quaife/Torsen AND a 3.44 R&P, there's this:

This says they are not compatible, but it could just be that one brand.
