Starter question

[WJ]

Is the starter supposed to be painted black or red??? I like either way, but I want to be correct.

From the factory, it would have been red. If added later, or replaced from a supplier, it would likely have been black.

I have never seen any Delco badge replacements but a starter/generator repair shop could probably give you that answer. I was going to remove the badge on mine for painting but could not remove the rivets so I carefully masked it with tape.
