Flint East is an automobile production complex on Robert T Longway Boulevard in Flint, Michigan. Parts of the factory are over 100 years old, and it was long a part of General Motors. It became part of Delphi Corporation in 1999 and is likely to be closed in 2007 as that company has entered bankruptcy.

The factory originally was part of Durant Motors and built the Dort brand in the 1920s. The complex was sold to General Motors after the brand was phased out and it became part of GM's AC Sparkplug Division.
