Ok guys, this is off topic but I want y'alls opinion about something
Most of ya have seen my '70 Chevy Truck I bought. Now this is about my trucks engine, I'm gonna pull it over the winter, and put a new highflow oil pump in it, a bigger oil pan too. I'm also gonna replace the seals while I'm in there.. anyways, I'm going to clean it up and piant it. I've been thinking of painting it Red, like a lot of people do with Stroker motors, but then again everyone loves Chevy Orange. I'm really torn here. Help me decide. What do you guys think I should do with it? Also, I don't know if it helps you decide or not, the only stuff I've got on it Chrome are, valve covers and a timing case cover, then just an Edelbrock Perfromer intake with a plain Edelbrock carb. I'll put up a poll about it.

Don, thats the same shade of Red I'm wanting (If I choose Red)
I like the painted Tranny too. I'll probably do the same with mine.
