yes, nice to work on the engine, something different. Even the baby blue is a high heat paint. The red and the aliminium paint also high heat stuff. I dont forsee that the red pipes will stay in colour shape al way long. But as long as they are looking new for pics, it is fine.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I like the red pipes & silver motor.
The blue sump........hhhhhmmmm.....looks different, but I would have gone for black or silver.
Engine looks like a lucky packet sweet
Yip Gary, I remember you also once enquired on red radiator pipes and turbo intake in red. Gary, I painted them with more than one layer of high heat paint and then finished it off with clear. Some of the pipes does take the paint easy and will last. If you dont wickle or move the pipes or bend them with your hands, I think the colour will stay quite long. I just want the engine to look spanking clean when I do the engin swop. E.g. the breather pipes wont be hassled in any way and will not crackle the paint.Where did you get those red pipe Freddie??
Great, thanks for that advice. Yes then i will redo one or two places. For sure. Will check and redo that.otherwise i think you could expect some leaks???
