Got it installed and WOW!!! What a difference. Incredible bang for the buck.
If you haven't sent your head to RB, do it.

The Ford blue is a pretty close match to the rear spring color.

JB,

Unfortunately, I put the RB carb and VF3 on at the same time, so I can't tell which made the most difference, but it gained significantly wider power range. I went from a 200 35mm carb and boyssen's to this setup.

Easy, white card outside on a cloudy day, late afternoon indirect light with a cheap point and shoot.

I'm not sure about the blue and green, silver would be the logical choice, unless you paint the rest of the engine to match it kinda looks funny...
