worked on my motor till 12AM last nite with the owner of the shop (he helped me assemble it) anyone needs a machine shop in middle tn pm me.

anyhow, it has been hot tanked and i masked it all off and sprayed it with this along with some other things..should I have made a better decision and got a better $$$$ rattle can primer?

Should i have used self etching primer?

would it be worth it to get the primer off and clean and REprimer it all? I dont want it flaking off in a week lol.

what order should i paint my motor, and how many THIN coats of everything thanks!

Also which intake should i get?:

weiand stealth (builder recomended)
summit brand
edelbrock performer eps OR (what you guys recommend edelbrock)
*other your choice*

355 vortec heads thumper cam balanced bottom end, not sure on carb yet, I have a 500 cfm edelbrock but probably need a bigger one right?

thanks

Everything on the motor needs to be high temp paint, or it will burn off.

Pretty sure you're going to have a hard time getting that head to fit your 350
