Mine is date coded and would like to try and keep it original as I am refurbing my 68 RR engine. I believe it is an old 37 amp single post, single pulley. www.picturetrail.com/hemi_ram

Jim 68 Hemi Road Runner Can you tell how they refinished your case? Is it silver paint or something else? Glass bead blasted? Could be, but that would not be a good choice because the beads would be too aggressive and alter the cast smooth surface. You could use more of a powder type abrasive with a lower pressure, but with either method you are still leaving it bare aluminum and it will corrode with time. I believe the factory method of corrosion protection was a dichromate dip, but I haven't found any company yet that would be willing to do it.
