I was going to get my manifold polished but I'm thinking about stretching my resources and opting to have it bead blasted instead. It was painted before & I removed all the paint. It actually looks pretty good, but there are a couple areas between the runners (down deep) where it could look better. Therefore, I'm leaning toward bead blasting. Problem.....I checked my local yellow pages and couldn't find sh!t. Saw a few commercial sandblasting companies that do block walls & houses, but no car parts.
So, if you know of a place around the La Mirada, CA area let me know please. (Superdave013 knows everything, maybe he can help)
