    63 327/300hp carb return spring bracket

    What is the correct finish for the carb return spring bracket that mounts on the front two bolts of the intake? I don't see anything in the judging manual if it was on before the motor/intake was painted or put on after? Reproductions seem to be black or either bare steel or plated I can't tell. thanks!

    Daniel,

    The bracket was installed prior to the engine being painted. It was most likely bare metal and would be painted orange with limited paint coverage on the inside or back of of the bracket when view from the driver's side of the engine.

      Daniel, It is steel, therefore magnetic. If you have a stainless one, look for an original.

        Thanks for the replies, it is steel not stainless but i couldn’t tell what the correct finish was, then seeing two finishes on the repro parts had me lost more! Awesome. Thanks! Dan
