Is the water pump pully supposed to be black, gray or natural? I've checked a lot of old posts - lots of info on water pumps but nothing on pully color.
Thanks in advance,
Hello Luke
Here an excerpt from the TRA judging guidlines:
"Water Pump and Pulley and Fan Belt. No changes (ref: SPCEd4, pg. 9). The water pump, body, and pulley may be left unpainted or painted black. A grease nipple should be installed on the upper RH of the pump."
We went with basic black.
If you bead blast the casting, it will come up very nice grey colour, but you will need to coat it with something to prevent rust. Same thing for the steel pulley, which we painted black.
