Chevy Orange
Ok, need everyone's opinion. I decided to try something to see how it would come out. It will still be a little while yet before I have the time to put them on the car. It's a little different twist on the Edelbrock accessories. What do ya think?

Thanks Circuit Rider. I've just got stationed out on the east coast and had a few days to tinker with the car after it came off the shipping truck. Now to work in a little time for the installation.

I like the orange. I just put a 350ci/290 hp engine in my '76 and I went with the powder coated orange dress up kit. The Chevy orange off the shelf paint for the engine didn't match up with the dress kit, so I had some paint custom made to match the engine up with the dress up kit.

SeventySixer, looks great. I'm a big fan of the Chevy orange. The match up of the paint looks good!

Yes I do get a good reading, and it was nice to have when I started the motor up for the first time after it was built.
