23736, Engine painting
Posted by NAEclipseMatt, Jun-07-02 03:53 PM
Hey wondering if some people could tell me what they think, I currently have my valve cover, my entire intake manifold, and my throttle body sitting in my house, engine trouble. I was thinking before it was going on I coiuld do a little, so I got the manifold ported out a little and polished some, just some cheap work to do since I was there, and I was wondering what u guys thought about this idea. Do you think that I should get some paint and paint these things, valve cover etc... because I have a very plain engine aside from the blue AEM intake. Please let me know what you think, and what color schemes I should go for, I was thinking TB silver looking, and try to match the manifold to intake coloring. thanks

Go for it, I have the blue AEM intake also, and had my valve cover powder coated to match. Then I sanded and pollished the lettering on the valve cover...adds a lot to the engine bay.

High temp degree engine paint. Spray ONE light coat over it. Bake in the oven in ur mammy's kitchen on preheat 450, bake at 500 for 20 minutes. Serve chilled when ready :)



Painted valve cover is wery wery goot imo.
