Assembling Matching Numbers 383-Is fuel pump painted?

Hope not!

I did mine that way but it was bad and had to be replaced. To late after re-Assembly.

Think they were though. Seems they would have been based on the fact even the exhaust manifolds were.

Opinion only no hard facts.

I pulled the big block exhaust manifolds off the shelf and there is residual paint on the heat riser, so you are right, the exhaust manifolds were painted.
