    Could be for real. It should look nice on a yellow car or if the owner wants everything customed to his/her taste, even the calipers & interior can be coloured. I just did my valve covers but in classic red.

    Real, but not factory. One of the guys from the Malibu Rat Pack had the top of the intake plenum, on his 360, painted yellow. I don't know if that picture was take from his car, but it is the intake off of a 360.

    Im thinking that the intake off a F430 because of the shield in the middle is different from the on on the 360 plus they're nit as boxy as the 360s intake

    actually i believe its off of an F430. looks to curved to be a 360 plus it has the scuderia shield in the middle.

    Gentlemen I stand corrected. It is off of a 430. I just looked at a pic of a 360 engine and they are not the same. The 360 engine has a horse in the middle, but it is on a square shape, and not in the sf shield shape.

    So it is quiet possible this is a factory option.

    That's really not the point.
