Plating/Paint Question
 

69SS396 Camaro. Is the "L" bracket that supports the distribution valve on the passegger side of the master cylinder plated gold irridite like the booster or painted semi gloss black? I have consulted several publications and have viewed many photos that show both.

I checked into this same thing a couple of years ago. One of the top professional restorers on 69's confirmed it to be Gold Irridate. I suppose this is always open for debate though. Mine is a Chevelle but I wouldn't see it being different on the Camaro. Just my $.02 worth, good luck.

Semi-gloss black is correct for the (L) bracket on passenger side. The proportioning valve bracket (drivers side heavy bracket) gets gold cadium dichromate.

My apologies, I misunderstood which bracket you were referring to [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/worship.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/worship.gif[/img]
