Thread: has anyone painted a transmission?

has anyone painted a tranny? if so what color? i was thinking of doing it black or silver

id paint it black or silver, or to match the engine, you dont see much except for the bell housing but you can really see it.

Black would be my first vote then silver. I prefer black since if grease/oil gets on it I don't have to be in a rush to clean it versus silver.

My rebuilt tranny in the GTP was black. Looked sharp.

I painted one machine grey.

ya i think ill go black and then when i port my sc i will paint that and the tb and valvecover silver

Painting black can hide leaks etc.

When given the choice..I stayed with stock aluminum no paint. Easy to maintain, never needs a touch up and the hood is closed.

paint it like lime green or a bright orange.... that way someone will just see bright colors and be like wft??

^^^if anyone was going to do that then why not do Pontiac blue?

i mean if your gonna go though the trouble of painting it dont just settle for black or silver...everyone who paints there trans does that..make it different and make it stand out

Polka dots!

Or realize..it'll be out and you'll build at least one more or use another casing etc.

Mines blue... cause the guy who rebuilds mine paints all of them blue

thats the thing my tranny went out the other day and i already got a new one with 37k on it
