I am currently installing a 455 in my 72 GTO. The bellhousing is currently painted the same as the motor. Is this correct? I thought it should be unpainted. Now is a real good time for me to fix this.

Bob,
The Pontiac bellhousings were natural alum. The problem I'm running across more & more with painted is bunch of less than ethical folks are out there painting their bellhousings with alum paint to hide small cracks. Not good situation & for that reason, I won't paint 'em. As a result, on cast bellhousings I've taken in on trades, just don't have a use for 'em unless they make it through the solvent tank & the spinwasher w/o cracks. As such, will usually clean incoming bellhousing while customer waits.

Thnaks Roger. I thought that was the right answer but wanted to make sure.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
