TX Firefighter,
I have bought the POR15 system and will be painting my engine next week. I would like to know you procedure for painting the components. To be more specific, did you assemble the engine and then paint it? It looks like most of the fasteners are painted, before or after assembly? Did you spray paint or brush on the finish? The valve covers look sprayed. I would hate to make a mistake, since this stuff is so hard to get off. I also bought the POR15 gray manifold paint and will post how it works out.
