Hi,
OK I have started pulling the engine down and I have decided I want to repaint it the eggshell blue before putting it into the swb.

So... anyone know where I can get the paint, will it have to be heat resistant and should I use a undercoat???

Many thanks in advance
Andy

Good stuff, expensive , likely the most accurate colour

Cheaper might be all right

Don't normally use primer just make sure block is completely free of contaminants. Having said that, can't see a decent primer being a bad idea.

Craftsman paint are also good and have accurate colours.
