I know the FMS shafts had a longer relief once reason I liked them over the ARP, can you measure the reliefs for me. I measure the one I have on the shelf...

I like silver/aluminum. My 302 is black and it shows tons of dust and dirt, impossible to keep clean. Red always makes me think something other than a Ford color...

I installed a FRPP oil pump shaft summer 2010 and it did say ARP on it. Very light laser etching.

Nothing a little glassbead wont take care of, Ill have to measure those holes.... they say GT on them in the corner right?

Personally, BLACK on the block and heads...Ford Blue just look out of place especially in a red car IMO

i left my calipers at work the other day but i'll get the bolt hole measurement for you. if they are a bit loose i can have bushings made to tighten up the hole
