I have one! But it's black and carbon fouled. When my idle bleeds clogged up a couple of weeks ago (before I spun my balancer apart...) I pulled them out and replaced them -- so the plugs in there now are almost brand new. In order to try and get my engine to idle I had to constantly pump the throttle and, of course, the accelerator pump was dumping raw fuel down the carb which fouled them up. Otherwise, I would happily post a hi-res shot of them. Light silver and blue is a reasonably popular combination. For an Edelbrock headed FE of my size, 35 degrees is pretty typical... maybe a degree or two more.
