  • Engine Color Scheme for my rebuild

    First, i have a white + black car, and i was trying to decide on these combinations:

    1. Black block and heads, silver powder coated headers, silver intake, chrome valve covers and chromed pulleys, black stb with CAMARO in white letters

    2. Red block, black heads, silver intakes, chrome valve covers, silver powdercoated headers chrome pulleys, red wire looms and red stb with CAMARO written in white?Black.

    ## Basically, i think silver, black, and white will look more classy and sleek, what i am going for, but am pondering the integration of red and the classic chevy red block. will a red block look to random on a white car?

    I think red would look better. It would still have that classy look to it, but would make it stand out a little bit more.

    I think the black/silver only would blend in a little too much and it wouldn't look like you had done anything since all the hoses and a lot of accessories are black too.

    Red would make it more prominent to show off the engine bay a bit and show the extra effort, yet still maintain a nice look imho.
