    Painting over an engine ?'s

     



    I've got a chance to buy a built 327 from a guy who doesn't need it at a pretty good price, the only problem is that for his application he put a thin coat of high temp black paint on the block and heads, and I really want chevy orange. the build was just done in June of this year...never been run yet...what's the best way to put a nice coat of bright orange on this block if I were to get it?
    FYI, I'm building a '32 ford 3W coupe hi-boy, so the engine will kind of be the centerpiece of this car, so I want something that will both look good and be durable and last.
    Any thoughts on the POR 15 engine enamel?

    Eastwood generally has good stuff. Prep according to their directions.

    I've always had better luck spraying than brushing.
