the stainless pieces were sanded and prepped fairly easily. The chrome pieces were near perfect to begin with so they too were all just sanded down smooth and the powder went directly over them.

Engine Paint
 

So the engine is getting its round of color:
The color is a slightly lighter shade of gun-metal for contrast.
All the trim will be black.
Sorry I painted my heads Greg. :lol:

I bought a small brush at the hobby shop today.... that way I can leave my headers and everything on and paint around them. :D

Good looking color. What valve covers are those that you painted?

BBC71..... they are GM Performance with the "Chevrolet" machined off.

Greg..... thought you'd like that :thumbsup:

I've decided to ditch the Inglese set-up for now because of time.
We are CNC'ing a one-off air cleaner that should be a nice compliment to the engine bay. In the meantime, here it is in all its glory..... less air cleaner.

Looks good Steve!

Are those heads aluminum?

It looks great. That would be a nice color to do my 6 spd. Nice work.

You got 2 months to go buddy, and I want at least 50 miles on it before we meet:woot:

More like 5 weeks.... :willy:
and 50 miles = 200 1/4 mile passes :wow:

Real sharp looking color man, good luck with it!
