    So we are doing a skidplate bottom oil pan for AMC V8's and may add 1qt. extra capacity. The problem I have is do we do these in Chrome or yellow zinc?



    Chrome...looks great...hold more heat than a painted pan
    Yellow zinc ...Looks great (yellow) ...lasts as long as chrome (sometimes longer)...doesnt hold any excessive heat like chrome.

    Zinc it - don't need extra heat and who gives a rats butt if it shines!!! I'm not getting down there to polish it and it's on the bottom where the mud and road grime are anyway!!
