The weird things you learn about your car at times.
Learned that the hemi orange colored throttle spring was used ONLY in 1967 on the Big Block engines.
Why would they do that?? Why that color??
My car for example, you have a turquoise colored engine, black air cleaner, chrome valve covers and you use a hemi orange colored spring??

Springs were often colored for identification, like every different spring in a brake drum is a different color. 340 K members had a flat washer welded on for identification. Something for line workers to recognize or a different spring length/rate/strength is my best guess.
