Don't go for chrome bolts... Use polished stainless...

I don't think I will make it up there for the ride. But I may be passing through the nearby area on Friday night so I may just stop and introduce myself. The ride looks like it will be fun. A very scenic route has been picked.

Looks good. We have both the polished and chrome engine bolt kits. I'm out currently but need to get some back on hand which usually doesn't take long.
