Color for Pulley

For 1970 BBB - what is the correct shade of black for the water pump and crankshaft pulleys? Gloss, Satin, Chassis, ????

I looked at the thread on front end colors and did not see this.

 

Satin, semi gloss, chassis black, like everything else under the hood except the air cleaner………

 

Thanks! off to the powder coat-er!

 

Heater box on Non AC cars was gloss black too. Really noticeable on firewall which was pretty flat. It was installed after firewall was painted.

 

What shade of black was the air cleaner painted? I thought it was satin black?

 

Gloss

 

Amazed how many people think that??? I have originals I took decals off and they are very glossy.

 

It’s pretty much GM wide that air cleaners were gloss. I’m restoring a 72 w30 now and same thing. Metal parts of air cleaner are gloss.

 

This is my go to picture from a 70 magazine article. You can see gloss air cleaner and gloss heater box against flatter firewall. Fender wells appear semi gloss.

 

And I thought Stage 1's got a chrome air cleaner top???

 

They were gloss, my 72 stage-1 air cleaner has not been restored and date stamp in the housing.

 

Thanks for the clarification!

 

Original 1970 stamped air cleaner I have is very glossy under GM decal on side. Chrome air cleaner covers on a Stage were out there later by someone

 

Was the radiator in a 1970 painted satin as well, or gloss?

 

1968 GS's all had chrome lids without decals as far as I can tell.
