Engines painted (1 Viewer)

I'm planning on painting my engine and accessories soon and was wondering how you guys painted yours? Not so much the steps but what color(s). Got a pic of your motor finished? Let me see it. Just looking to get some ideas.

Thanks

Every time that picture comes up I get inagadadavita stuck in my head. Thanks Trollhole for that and I have always wondered if that truck has a LSD?

This makes me want a roll of lifesavers.

I've been leaning to black for an engine color. Can't see the envitable leaks in the future.

Believe it or not, Marshall has actually wheeled the truck enough at this point that the paint and powdercoat does not hurt the eyes in person nearly as much as this photo does!;p

I painted mine with Duplicolor High Heat Engine Paint: Cast Iron

I really like it, its a dark Grey and just better to look at than plain black IMO. Sorry no pics.

I used the high heat cast iron paint. Still looks like freshly casted iron after 5 years.

Just paint it black. It's funny how the worst running, lowest horsepower, crappiest cars always get the bright, obnoxious, redneck engine paint jobs! With the exception of Trollholes's, of course. That's just funny.

That is gorgeous! (not to take anything away from the "big gay 2F" ) Saved for inspiration on my '71. Is there a thread on mud for that build?
