McQuillen Racing near Rochester NY. They build a lot of American engines, mostly for drag racing, but they have some pretty talented machinists/engine builders over there.

I'll try and snag a few pics before it goes back together. The rings are designed for Nikasil as well, they are Porsche OEM parts for a 964 (forgot year, not sure if it matters).
