Finned/wrinkle finish w/top of fins polished!
I want mine red but black will do.
If you can't do finned - I already painted mine red!

Powder coat finish would be better than painted!

Black wrinkle finish to match the twin screw. :D

Lot's of requests for blue of one shade or another. The blue is certainly nice and also appropriate.....but in addition there are other colors that work as well or ( better, that would interest at least me.) JMHO

High temp paint with high temp primer and a good coat of clear, followed by wet sanding. It's all in the prep. I never cared for wrinkle finish, I like it smooooth.

Yes I will take back cores. I have no idea on pricing yet. This thread did not go as planned. I'm gonna have to rethink this. :coffee:

Where did you get your coil covers from? I like them a lot and wouldn't mind having a set, nice oil cap too.

Colex made them, I'm not sure if he still does. I have them on my engine and they are quite a attention getter.

Your right, the whole color spectrum is still in play plus chrome.

Metal flake, anyone?

The new Ford "Boss" green colors are awesome.

Black chrome FTW! :D

I seen a lot of different colors for cam covers, blue, red, gold, silver, purple, chrome, yellow, and wrinkle black finish. When choosing your color, make sure it goes with other accessories of your engine because they are the focal point and a unusual color will look out of place. Black, chrome and silver match everything under the hood.
