Whilst i have the donk out i thought that i would get the box rebuilt.

I am aware that the GTS 350 manual boxes were the same colour as the engine, is this the tru re the power glide?

If not, can someone please assit me with teh correct colour?

AFAIK the correct colour for a Powerglide case is the natural aluminium finish.

I know on 6-cyl (Holden) Powerglides the front few inches of the bellhousing had engine paint overspray on them, but I'm not sure about the V8s.
