Have a set of fuel rails for my '72 that are "cad" plated.
Back in my concours days, my rails were polished (by me) to a brilliance of chrome. Know that's not correct, but the new rails are spec. Been too long for me to remember the correct "original" finish. So....... Pat |

OE Fuel Pressure and Decel NEVER CAD PLATED though the OEM is now ..
plus these re-cad plated parts are obivius not Orignal cad plate you can see it in the color flaw and it does not last when used as intended, I have had many re-caplated parts and hardware. It weaars off in 2 months where the Original Cadlate that has been on my car 35 years outlast it ,.,. NO CAD PLATE OE Parts Cad Plate OE part (you can see the difference compared to a re-cad it is dull sheen not color shifting shinny and you can see the red green as non metallic) |
