That's a sexy finish...looks like the caliper was brushed and then plated with electroless nickel. We've made some chromoly brackets for a few vintage racers in the past that we had plated with e-nickel and they hold up really well against corrosive brake dust and fluid

Those look killer Steve! Baer are coming out with some really nice stuff as of late.
(I actually saw the rotors & calipers that will be going on Orange Krate. WOW!! I don't know what model they are, but I am sure they are track tested. They are huge and the quality looks great.)

Those are the 6S momoblocks.. same as what Kyle Tucker runs on his '70

They were too big for my car.
