Oil pan, black or orange.
Here are some pictures of the oil pan powder coated in black. One next to the head for color comparison. I’m not sure if I like it black, and am considering painting it to match.
Ideas or suggestions appreciated. s/t

Re: Oil pan, black or orange.
I guess my thought was the oil pan will disappear under the truck, where the orange will show.
I guess the black will stay! s/t

Re: Oil pan, black or orange.
I vote paint the whole thing a shade of color just a little off from your trucks exterior.

Re: Oil pan, black or orange.
Black oil pan means you wont see the factory rust proofing that all SBC's seem to emit.

Re: Oil pan, black or orange.
Keep it black...you already did the work. Focus that energy on something else next.
