    A general question.: Since I have the engine out, and am rebuilding(having rebuilt!) a lot of the now easy to get at items, I figured I should make sure I replate properly. Does anyone have opinions as to what is plated what? I was told the fuel rail was nickel; then I was tolk it was chrome! Just wondering what people come up with. It looks like a lot of the nuts, bolts and studs were black oxided or black phosphorused, and other stuff was silver cad, but some does look to be nickel. I'd love to hear from engine builders out there, and thanks, Vince

    I take it the engine is a V12 from a 330?
