What's the correct finish on the HP manifold heat riser valve counter weight for 1970?

okay thanks. Should I spray it with some high heat clear to keep from looking like crap in a few months?

I believe the manifolds were painted engine color, then it burnt off, leaving the counterweight, spring and stop painted (spring ans stop look oversprayed).

Hey Barry - Is that manifold off your T/A? The counter weight looks like the "later style" - see this post: https://board.moparts.org/ubbthreads/show...e=0#Post4477721

Nope.

Mine had headers on it when I got it.

The photo is from the low mile T/A.

Barry, I have a 70 big block one that looks identical, but blue. The backside (spring and stop)looks as though not much effort was put into getting the paint in there, just overspray.
I will get pix of the one on the low mile AAR when I get a chance.
