Black block with red heads and black rockers

Black block with black heads and black or chrome rockers

Red block with black heads and chrome rockers


Inlet will be silver either way as its ally



Found a few pics similar to what I could paint it like

All black (pics a bit big so heres the link) http://www.chevrolet.com/content/da...llation-notes-28-454-ho-12568774-1480x670.jpg

This is its current colour, looks nice and worn but I fancy the engine being black

Gave the one in my Camero blue block, silver heads & inlet and it looked f superb but if blue's not an option then black block, silver heads & inlet get's my vote.

Vehicle is black, its gonna get the rat rod look so want to keep it looking mean

Black block with silver heads was considered but I reckon the black heads will look real nice, silver paint never looks great on an engine

Why the feck would you want to paint an engine? It's under the bonnet and out of sight, I know some types of folk might get an orgasm at the sight of a painted engine. Each to their own I suppose


By the way, I've just painted my generator and it is nice

My mate chromed and polished various parts of his engine even though he knows within days they'll get minging. I think he was just bored. Are you bored Doc?

Because it could use a lick of paint the old paint is a bit ratty looking although I'm tempted to leave as is as well and just fit matte black rockers

I still say mint green. Classic colour that the army did their 2.5na blocks in

Yeah but will it be as bombproof . Nah black will be fine though if you're putting in a big ass engine you'll wanna lift the bonnet and show it off and if you're gonna show it off you're gonna want it to stand out. Black don't do that

red does though I suppose, will contrast nicely with the black body too



454s are bombproof
