Engine Bay Spring Clean!!

[Joe Baker]

Im in the middle of rebuilding an engine with a friend of mine and basically want to bring new lease of life to engine bay!! What advice could you give me ie. type of paint to use on engine and block etc and is it expensive! Should i sand/shot blast engine and bits etc?? Might as well do it now as its out on the floor in bits..!!

Id say sanding would do 240 paper is it they use i think it is Heat proof paint for the block,

And good quailty paint for the bay if its cheap dirt then expect to pull enigne out and do it agian due to the heat of the engine its fooks up the paint!
