I have an original deep groove BB pulley that looks like it was dipped in black paint.

Wow...sounds like a real controversy. I will take the easy way out and go with the 60/80% gloss. Thanks guys.

No real controversy, check MacNeish's ( THE DEFINITIVE 1969 CAMARO Z/28-SS396 FACT BOOK) He says both ways are correct! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img]

On the early production 1969 cars I have seen phoshate pullys. Later in the year more black. Just my observations. You can usually find evidence on the back side of a pully. Most hack job restorations attempts never even remove such items...BKH

I think you are correct about early cars. I think it may have been cheaper to paint or they found a different supplier later in the year. That is were Tinnell found the phosphating (backside) [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img]
