 . It didnt last long. I pulled the motor cleaned it and painted it orange. And removed the socket water pump bolt spacers . Sorry no pics in purple probably would have broken the camera. Aaron |

Re: Engine Color???
i don't know guys,, orange is probably a give-in but i keep threatening my father to have mine powder coated white. obviously this would be for a show truck but it gets him every time. it's too much fun.

Re: Engine Color???
seen a truck painted pink with a pink big block engine in it...........now THATS sick .
if you not so mush in detailing the engine and use it as a daily driver i would go for black on the block and heads and a little engineoil or vaseline on the chrome , when its showtime take a rag get the oil and stuck on grudge off and it shines like new

Re: Engine Color???
Crate motor came black then did it red last winter to match everything else. I like the red really well. I think every truck has its own personality and that should be what determines the engine color.
