L71 Intake Manifold: Did it have overspray from the factory?

[Wayne H.]

I see some L71 intakes have overspray and some don't.
How was it sprayed from Tonawanda? With the intake on?
Thanks

Wayne Parev,
The intake should have some overspray on the bottom edges. It was on the engine when painted, they used a cover over it when the engine got painted. Opinions vary as to how much or how high the intake the overspray should be, but suffice it to say that if have some overspray on the intake, as well as the bypass hose and exhaust manifolds you'll be good.
