Thanks Bud!
The build looks great. Curious about the paint. Were these engines painted at the factory? I know they get all corroded, but just curious because if the paint peels or lifts due to rust, etc, it may be a visual problem rather than a benefit. Would media blasting the block be useful? Wondering mainly because I'll be into this exact project in the next several months.Thank you for the kind words! I use aluminum color automotive engine paint 500 degree range bought it from the Home depot for $4.99 and it works great, they also carry 2000 degree paint.
Did you bake the knuckles? I noticed the can recommended using heat to help the paint to cure.
