I remember seeing a 'vert (I think) that looks like he went back in time to pick it up. Had all the factory stickers and markings under the hood. I know I took pics but can't find them :(
I want to try and make my engine bay as "factory original" as I can but I can't seem to find engine bay shots online of a stock 87 5.0 for reference. I can figure out where the overspray ended and what was grey and all that I guess. But I think I'm missing stickers around the hoses and one on the rad support. Also how was the non-AC cars plugged at the firewall. I'm gutting the interior so I will just put in a new heater core and remove the AC thing in there while I'm at it (if that's doable). I think it was a piece of foam/rubber that was stuck on from the inside of the firewall.
Was the engine block NOT painted in those years or painted some kind of grey. Also don't remember the valve covers, just raw aluminum?
Anyway some pics of 100% unmolested speed density 5.0 would be greatly appreciated.
