Re: Engine Details (Correct Overspray)
On SHP engines with aluminum intakes and chrome/finned covers there should be very little orange on the ends of the intake and none on the sides along the valve covers. As the entire top of the engine was covered during painting this area was not painted. Mid-year BB Corvettes had painted valve covers and DID have overspray on the sides of aluminum intakes, probably why everyone thinks this is correct.
There is a rare color engine photo of a BB '68 Camaro in a '68 issue of PHR for reference. Z/28s have little to no intake overspray.
