The fuel pump & primer handle are left natural as are the manifolds &
thermostat housing. The only thing that gets painted is the block, head,
fan, water pump, and oil pan if you do not have an al pan from a super
sport. By the way, the Morgan has a different thermostat housing.
You did not say where you are from. In Santa Cruz California is a shop
called Greg Solo's Engine Room. Greg is a Morgan fanatic and has bult a
large number of engines for racing Morgans. He is in the 408 area code.
Give him a call & ask him if he knows any clubs in your area.
