Topic: 1967 390 PVC System Painting

[Paperback Writer]

Okay, we're getting ready to repaint my engine now, and I just wanted to confirm which parts of the PVC System should be painted Ford Corporate Blue, and which ones should be left as natural:

1 - Front PVC Manifold Fitting (Steel)
2 - PVC Tube
3 - Long/Curved PVC Hose and Wire Clamps
4 - PVC Valve Adapter
5 - Short/Straight PVC Hose and Wire Clamps
6 - Rear PVC Manifold Fitting (Brass)

Thanks for help!

Pretty easy - all the above were attached to the engine when the engine was painted. The ONLY variable would be where the painter stopped the blue paint application along the rubber hose between the PVC angle block and the attachment to the Y tube. Have seen it half way and have observed it as far out as to produce light overspray on the the brass 9o degree fitting

Hope this helps

Thanks Jeff,

This helps!  Over the years, I've seen restored cars that have had nothing painted; everything painted; or various combinations of painted and unpainted parts.  After a while, it becomes hard to know what's right and what's wrong...

Cheers!
