Default If you looking for a chrome alternator.
I was looking for a chrome alternator and looking at the prices i was not happy. Found one at ecklers they have one for $699. Which is crazy. Did some more home work and found tuff stuff in jegs. You can get a brand new alt chrome plated from jegs for 389. I think thats a good deal. I called today and got one coming.

I order one from ChromeCo about a year ago and when it showed up it was in a Tuff Stuff box I paid $699.00 for it. $389.00 is a great price for a chrome Alternator for a C5.

That's a great price. I think I paid $799 for mine through Summit Racing a few years ago.

I think the other color is black sorry Kevin. The extra 300 is having my valve covers and alt/power steering braket powdercoated.
