Which color should I paint my intake?

Here is how it looks like now...



I plan on polishing all the brake lines and polishing the alternator to a nice shine along with all the brackets etc.

Polish it if at all posible

The only thing with polishing it is that the aluminum is not high quality and one will be able to see small holes throughout the aluminum the size of a pin head.

the only reason I say red is because your stb is red. but if you didn't have the stb i'd say black. You wnna try to polish it? you might want to pick up a spare because it's gonna take a full month to polish it to a mirror. I tried to polish one and the casting had a ton of air bubbles so it was a big waste of time.

I think Im leaning towards red personally.

Graphite/Silver.

If you go red, it'll clash with the STB too much. And you really dont have a lot of red under there to flow that well. If you go with a silver-esq color it'll go better with the red and still flow w/ the black.

Dude, I polished an entire LT1 (everything except for the block) for my grandfather before it went into his '57 Chevey Bel-Air.

Trust me, if you do it right it will look just as nice as the rough satin LS1 Weiand I polished. It was horid out of the box... and compared to the casting of the LS1 valvecovers, your intake will be a snap!

Keep in mind this intake was a rough corn cob out of the box. Now it looks like glass.

All these votes for pink are really getting me confused and are watering down the votes. I didnt actually think anyone would vote that, dammit.

I am in the process of doing some polishing on some of my engine parts. lots of fun and if you are "REALLY" into working on your car all the time like it is a drug addiction, than this is a cheap and time fulfilling way of going about it. Rub one out...+1 for polished.

Here's an idea. If you don't want to go through the trouble or expense of polishing, you could paint the intake red, and highly polish the ribs on top of the intake.

Bright clear coated red with extremely bright polished ribs would look HAWT also.

I was gonna say something like that

Oh yeah, eigther way you'll need to polish the fuel rails too so it doesn't detract from the effort on the intake. The rails aren't hard to polish.

If I do go red, the ribs would be highly polished along with the fuel rails.

Yup. that looks good.

I would try to polish it then I would get a set of fuel rail cover's and paint those red.
