You'll probably find more interest in this in the "Appearance" forum.

you "fixed" it? Paint on the crank and timing cover seals are the scary parts. Those seals are toast.

I'm hoping the intake ports don't match the exhaust, in paint thickness.

Nothing like getting some nice abrasive TiO2 particles into the oil.

Since this is not getting much in the way of traffic here, let's move it to appearance.

You did paint the rods and oil pump too? Yellow seems to be the most popular color. Danny Mc
