Was red, engine bay is still red. You get a real quick look at it in the Falcon GT video, it looks like a stock EB V8 bay pretty much.

As for the GT, unfortunately access to underneath the bonnet is disallowed.
May I ask why this is the case? Is it to stop copycats, or because ford did something weird under there and has a 15 year trade secret?

not likley. the manifold is gt40 tubular upper & lower, with adaptor blocks to make the lower ports reach the heads.

sorry that the pics aren't better. they are from wheels & street machine but i didn't want to rip out the pages to fit them through the scanner so i photographed them.

hope this works :gren:
