Did you take your heat shelds off? or paint thos too?
That altanator looks great gold... my engine looks so dirty.. I dont even pressure wash it because then I quess I get water in my iginision or somthing cuz it wont start for 10 mins or soo.

wtf do you do clean your engine that well?

I painted the heat shields over the exhaust manifolds too. It was actually easier than I thought it would be. But they sure smoked like crazy when I started it up after a couple hours. The fumes were strong to say the least. But after a couple minutes it stopped, and in an hour it was cured.

I don't pressure wash it either. I never liked the idea of getting water in and on it. Believe it or not, I used a wire brush, toothbrush, and Armorall wipes to clean my engine. But I literally clean everything I can see and reach, and don't stop till I'm done. Like Allmach said...I'm insane.

Now that it'* painted it will be easier to keep clean.

looks awesome man...good work!

Good LORD MAN! That ROCKS... gold.. ..**bling**bling** That engine makes you look like a .... thats AWESOME

Thanks. I guess I am pimp now.

But I'm not done yet. I want to paint my radiator fans (and probably some other stuff) gold too.

Does anyone know what I have to do to paint these? I mean how do I get them out? What do I have to unplug if anything??

Unplugging the battery is a good start.. but i could get my chiltons out if you want, yes i did bring it to college....

#995 baby!

Yeah..if you got it handy.

Almost a nut now. You're going to pass me soon.

the valve cover on the front could use some red or gold

I actually agree. I still have more to do, and I was thinking on doing either red or black stripes on the valve cover, on the three 1/2 inch thick "ribs" or whatever you wanna call them.
