    If you search for engine paint I am sure you can find hundreds of threads where folks have tried alot of things. I have not yet painted an engine myself.

    The exhaust was originally a black chrome. Very custom and expensive option. Most folks tend to go to a Jet-Hot or similar ceramic coating, they can do black.
    Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

    When your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt.

      Powdercoating the engine would hanestly be best and ceramic coating the exhaust would also be best.
