Title: 1966 6 cyl. Exhaust Manifold "Ramp-Lok" Bolt correct finishes..

Subject:  1966 6 cyl. Exhaust Manifold "Ramp-Lok" Bolt correct finishes..

What's the correct Original finish for these Exhaust Manifold "Ramp-Lok" Bolts ???!???!?

I see that Allen from AMK is offering the bolts in Phosphate and Oil Finish, but I would swear that he also offered them in a Gold Cadium Plated finsih also a few years ago.

Am I going crazy??  Did he offer both??!?  Were both finishes correct, or was there only one correct finish?!??

Signed,  Confused.

:o)

Thanks,

Tony K.

I can't a test to what finish someone reproduced them in the past. I have only paid attention to the V8 counterpart which used the same style bolt but I have only ever seen them in P/O finish originally.  Maybe someone else has seen different.

OK Bob...

I'll buy that.  Good enough for me.
