I want to say that our '84 Burb had a blue engine. I know the '90 had a black one; both 350s. I think the '79 had a black one, but it had a Target Master engine so it was whatever color those came in the '80s....

My GM crate motor was black when it arrived at my house. Old Chevy small blocks need to be orange or they're not happy. This is what it looked like after I installed it and a recent picture
