    I'm looking for a little help in what to paint in what colors for some of the miscellaneous pieces of a 1966 GT350 engine. Specifically, items such as:

    *thermostat housing
    *front cover
    *dipstick/tube
    *water pump
    *pulleys
    *intake manifold bolts
    *coil clamp
    *fuel pump
    *fuel line & clamp to w/p
    *distributor clamp & bolt
    *distributor base
    *accessory brackets
    *engine block plate
    *any miscellaneous pieces that were painted with the engine

    Hours of research make things pretty confusing since you can find pictures of restored motors with color combinations that run the gammet. Even amongst some of the high dollar restoration cars out there things seem to vary quite a bit.

    Thanks ShelbyForums!
