69 Z 302 pulley finishes
« on: May 16, 2013, 03:42:21 PM »
Hello I have been looking/searching here and Camaro.net and really havent seen what i was looking for. I looked at Jerrys book and its an early one, whats the correct finish on the pulleys is it 60% gloss paint? or Phosphate? if paint, what have Y'all been using? I'm about to put mine together and am trying to do this right the first time- just really seeing if any new info had came up

Jerry MacNeish rebuilt my engine and refinshed the pullies (water pump, crank, and smog).   60% Gloss Black is what he refinished them in.

weren't some smog pulleys 'phosphated'?   I think Jerry's book also says that...??

Sorry to the late response - just noticed your question Mike.   I actually asked Jerry some months ago what paint brand he uses - its:  Seymour EN-48 paint.

Thanks Hans. I am going to powder coat all of my black underhood parts. Using the same finish. Thanks for the product number. That is great information.

Thanks.  :)   I'm unsure why they did them two ways (two suppliers)?  but I thought I'd seen a number of them phosphated (although all the other pulleys were painted).

How about the power steering pulley?   I have yet to restore the pump and pulley.  The pulley appears to have been phosphate plated as well.   Compare the finish of the pulley to the pump in the last pic.

 SEYMOUR  EN48  is the Chevy Orange,  many say it is the most accurate color and sheen.   I used a Satin Black for all pulleys.

Here is a photo of an original '69 Z/28 Power Steering pulley I own. Although the original finish mimics phosphating its definitely paint. In the photo you can see a small area that is chipping on the bottom right side.

Edmontonvillage - Thanks and interesting.  I'll have to inspect the pulley better and determine if it's paint.   Must be a very light paint as it's not obvious like the other components.

OK if they were painted what paint will give the closest finish to original? the W/P pulley I have is pretty well just gloss now so I would like to install it once

There is no indication it was dip painted (lacks tell tale runs) however its low gloss (at least 44 years later it is). I have not attempted to duplicate it.
