Hey guys whats up? I just bought a built b18c block, its completely assembled and on an engine stand. I just wanted opinions from people whove painted the whole assembly and had it last. Since its completely assembled, is it OK to take off the IM, pcv system, and tape off everything and just go to town, or is that harder than it seems? What procedures did you use to prep/clean, and what paint is the best? Any help with the whole project would be awesome. And I am trying to paint the block, head, and tranny so its all clean enough to eat off. All help would be appreciated. TIA

 

VHT - aluminum paint!

 

thanks, yeah Ive heard nothing but the best about VHT and thats what I assume I will use....Im just trying to also find how to clean/prep it and if its possible to paint everything with it mostly assembled and what to be careful of, etc etc
