Where can I find some good paint for my engine. And do I need anything specific?

I used VHT engine enamel on a motor and it's held up well... Get a good engine enamel and then *prep*!  That's the name of the game... you should be able to lick the engine off and not taste anything funny before you paint   :wink:

Just make sure you do this when it's not -20 outside! :)  It's all Prep, like Mike said, and any of the engine enamels should do a pretty good job.
