I am sorry but I do not like them at all on any colour Elan, I specifically said no when I got my Elan sprayed years ago.

I think yours is looking great but I think the above decisions are much harder to make than decisions about what camshafts to use; what diff ratios are best, etc etc.
Enjoy the conundrum
