Painted Paint Painting Motor Engine

My header started to rust, so I painted it. After a couple of months, it starts to wear off. I thought maybe I should paint my engine also!

Anyone know of a very high temp paint that will handle the heat?

I used on my header Dupli-Color 1200 Degree Aluminim Paint w/ Ceramic

Try to find higher temp paint for the mani, but that 1200 should work for a valve cover.

Well, where can I get something higher? At AutoZone and PepBoys and places like those, 1200 Degree is the highest.
