Hi All, I took off the phleum n value covers but now need to decide what color they should be. I have attached the color that I will be painting the color later on. Any suggestions?

Are you painting the car High Gloss Pine Green or the engine, or both? In either case, I'd definitely paint the upper intake with Alumablast. Autozone has it......

As for the valve covers I'd go with black wrinkle finish or dive deep and buy some aftermarket covers. I went with some Ford Racing valve covers on mine and I like the contrast. The block is painted Ford red........

The motor went into my '54 Ford and it's painted Firemist green metallic. Kinda close to your color. This pic will give you an idea of the color combo in a green car.......
