Nope... Similar shade of green of what you have today. We can try to paint it. If you want to, we need to buy a "heat resistant" paint though

Thanks for the heads-up. Already have all the fluids I need.

With the oil cooler on our engines IMHO you will very seldom see oil temps higher than coolant temps(180-195) so any block paint will work, Chev red would look good.....Pete

There is no way we'll ever see an off green filter under that red hood .

8Ball, now you're talking.....I like 9am vs. that insane 8am start, though if you heard a sparrow reving it's engine at 8:30am this morning, it was me, the 10th the 11th, who could tell, guess I should have put on the readers so I could have known what day it was ..... oh well, an excuse to get up early on a Saturday .

I've got the jack stands packed and will see you guys at 9am.
