Default Old School 'Two Tone' Motor

My motor is apart again and I am looking to get the barrels and heads powder coated instead of painted. I was thinking about the 'old-school two-tone' look -- black barrels and silver or raw aluminum heads. I'm wondering what it would look like in my otherwise stock-appearing 89 Ultra. Anybody else done that or have pics of an Evo motor done that way?

A lot of people do that. I think it looks awesome and that's what I am planning on next

That looks great. Are you running a four speed Tom? I can't tell from the pic. It won't let me make it big and judging by the year in you name and kicker I am guessing
