I use VHT, and it works pretty good. Remember to clean the block as good as you can, and give everything about 3 coats of paint. If you are painting Chevy Orange, don't expect it to look very good for more than a year, especcialy if you drive it every day. As much as i love Chevy Orange, one good oil leak and the motor looks like crap without giving it a very good cleaning, or possibly a repaint.
