428 crank spacer
« on: November 09, 2009, 10:45:26 PM »
is the crank spacer natural or engine color on a 3/69 dearborn 428cj? After rebuilding many 390's they were found to be engine color. Any thoughts Thanks Lu

I believe it would have some small amount of engine block color overspray as I believe it was in the timing cover protecting the seal at the time of engine painting. The same with SCJ hatchet head. Some but not much. Bob
