Even the Richmond 6 spd had been polished.
It even looks like polished exhaust pipes !!

Interesting - it looks like someone added some tubular frame reinforcements
with funky curves.

As far as color for cooling, I find it hard to believe that the color would make
much difference with a water cooled engine. BTW - I would think that pure
WHITE would radiate the least - but I may be wrong. Don't forget to include
any insulating properties that a layer of paint may have. Perhaps a polished
Al block radiates more than one painted with a heavy coat of black.

Never-the-less, that is one sweet SBC. I LOVE the black on polished look.

:thumbs: :seeya

Shane, I wish though. My dad has a '00 Caddy Northstar DOHC V8 in his street rod, still :cool: though.

I seen this engine/car while doing a search for spal fans. Go figure. :crazy:
