Proper plating for coil bracket
I'm looking to restore my ignition coil bracket
and hardware. Would anyone know what is the correct factory plating on it and the hardware? I've been told by some it maybe a dull zinc plating or possibly a galvanized finish on the bracket--any experts out there? Also need proper finish on the mounting bolts. This is what I have to start with (see photo). Thanks in advance--- Sal

IMO, they were made from galvanized sheet stock like the brake backing plates. It is acceptable, but not "correct" ? to plate in clear cad or zinc.

Thanks for your comments guys--- that coil
bracket above looks like hot dipped galvanized. Does anyone on sYc know of a shop that does this correct finish? Thanks for your help. Sal

"bracket above looks like hot dipped galvanized."
I agree - that is hot dipped zinc. |
