engine and drivetrain engine color feedback any pics of your motors?

[nbristow01]

engine goes to the machine shop this week. I will be painting it when i get it back. I was thinking ford engine blue on the block and oil pan, all other parts aluminum color. do you guys think that will look decent? My car is Verona, I like the way the blue IE swaybar loks undr the car so that is what got me thinking about the blue motor.

any color is fine just so long it's BLACK .

black sheds heat best on the color spectrum

Some powder coating of specific parts helps. Manifolds-valve covers big brackets.

I have a blue '74 motor i am about to pull out of a parts car. it looks like it was a nice powder coat job but it held up against engine heat. the grease and grime washes/wipes right off.

That being said, the engine is filthy because of an accident causing grime/antifreeze all over the engine bay.... but i'll try to snap a photo soon (also because the engine will be for sale).

Guess I'm "old school", but I like OEM black also. (Wonder what color Esty would like best?)

Lime green and time for a cleaning.

[BlindRhino]

Lime green or Lome green.

Go Black, You will never go back! oh wait, that is not PC.

Go Schwarz and aluminium! I pulled a blue block out of an old rust bucket we had and it just does not look right. Even the e39 looks black and aluminum.

and yeah, get Esty, she has a good sense of style, I am all jacked up abut the carpet set she is making for me right this minute! or at least on the way soon.
