Sorry for the delay, here's a couple pics of what the color looks like. This is the POR15 engine coat and the color is aluminum. I started with two coats of silver POR15.

Here's the before, more of a dull gray


After




Overall I'm very happy with the color. The only thing I'm not happy with was when I was putting it on, I thought I was putting it on with a light coat. Apparently it wasn't as light as I thought and started to run a bit. I tried to brush out the runs, but it ended up leaving some brush marks on the front of the heads. A friend of mine looked at it and really couldn't tell until I pointed it out, but it's one of those things that I know is there. Oh well, hopefully once everything's on the motor it will hide most of it.

Here's what I was talking about on the front of the heads
