But I'm guessing it's not chrome as he said it came back from the polisher.

I can’t tell you his pricing but I will tell both pieces and also the alternator bracket did not break the bank at all. Contact him with pics and he’ll give you a price. As a small business owner myself I don’t like clients giving out prices because then if things have changed in the market prices will then reflect that change.

Since I’m not going for power, I am going to change the heads out considering I’m blowing oil past the upper and I’m thinking about AFR165. Any suggestions? Would that work well with that intake?
