American Made Mechanical Fuel Pump

So having made the switch back to a mechanical pump from an electric pump, which was causing all sorts of problems, now the mechanical pump has issues.

In my search for an American made pump, I read somewhere the CarQuest pumps are American made, not so. It's actually an Airtex pump made in china. I'm currently on pump number two, after 15 days of use from pump number one, leaking fuel from the upper and lower diaphragm mating surfaces.

So, Carter pumps are made in Korea, which I've heard is a good thing, as are the ones made in Mexico (AC Delco?).

Does anyone here have thoughts on a good reliable brand?
