My god, that's a fine looking 427!!! You're right; the current satin black finish has been very well applied, so I'll see how it looks once the car is painted. If it's too much, then I can refinish as appropriate - I do like the natural finish of the FIA's and would seek to emulate that on my Halibrands. Thank you!

Once it's painted, I'll share an image. This is what it currently looks like - note the non tapered front wing flares of the very early Street cars up to 3109...
