What's the goin rate for powder coating a HSR?
I cant seem to find anyone whos selling a used Vortec HSR, so Im thinking about biting the bullet and buying it new (just the upper and lower plenum now). But +$700 is alot for polished, and I dont think I want a polished one anywayz. I was thinking about buying the Satin finish then powder coating it black. ANy ideas about how much that will run me for the coating? I THINK there's a good powder coating shop around North GA, but Ill have to find out when I get to work. But if its $360 for the HSR, then another +$300 for powder coat, I might just get the polished.

If you're going with a relatively common color, some powder coating establishments will give you a break if you can wait until they are set up with that color for a longer run. This saves them a color change that could conceivable be passed on to you.
