Re: Painting Engine
Yes. The also have Engine Paint. Clean it like you would any other metal surface, I used a nice big wire brush. Soap after is a good idea too.

Re: Painting Engine
I've always had good results with VHT high heat engine paint (550 degree as well as the 1500). Powdercoating holds up real well too.

Re: Painting Engine
+1 for Powdercoating.
