I think the final bill will be over $6,000 considering we are in Canada and some parts, like the cradle and the primary covers, had to be shipped to Old Brits and back. Add the battery, powder coat for the machined parts... At less than $2,000 Alton's starter looks mighty good, even if a chain must be retained at the present time. Even if all the work is done by the owner on an Old Brits starter conversion, the Alton is still a fair amount cheaper.
