Re: What's your color choice for LT5s?
I voted for the stock color.....because that's what I have, but not in P/C
I also can't say that I've seen one picture in this thread that doesn't look sweet! Powder coat just makes the factory paint look so lifeless. Love the color on -=jeff's=- motor....now that pops!....but I'm too lazy to keep up with the polished parts! Those parts would have finger prints all over them in no time.

Re: What's your color choice for LT5s?
The white in a white car, is my all time favorite engine combo, it just totally pops against the red and black, and just looks sick. Since my car was blue, I went with the silver metallic, and am very happy with it!

Re: What's your color choice for LT5s?
I should have added a choice for "body color" and one for "other" assuming you'd post a picture and explain.
Only 2 photos? Hard to believe only two members have pictures of their motors... |

Re: What's your color choice for LT5s?
Funny, I've done 6 motors out of what has been posted
Selecting a color is tough. I'm not really a fan of the black colors as everything in the engine bay is black already. The red always pops, either the bright red or even the dark candy red. The silver is a gorgeous color as well, and in the sunlight is spectacular. I also am not fond of the two tone colors, as it always looks awkward to me. But then again, it's not my car. |

I think white or red would look great in a white car.

Re: What's your color choice for LT5s?
The LT5 engine will look good in any color. The only thing that matters is that the total package (engine color, car color & accent color) work together. My pkg colors are blk/silver/red.
The white is killer lookin and really pops. Would be bad *** on a white car or a car with white interior. As with everything JMHO |

Re: What's your color choice for LT5s?
Anyone have pictures of white cars with different color motors? Whole car pictures would be great i.e. hood up at a car show!

Re: What's your color choice for LT5s?
If you want to dare to be different. This color would look good in a black or a white car. Those who have seen it will attest to needing sunglasses to view it in the sunlight!
