I am sure this was on the last messageboard!
What is recommended?
Also paint for Items such as rear springs, diff and front suspension.
Thanks!

Are you looking for original factory colours or just a paint to make it look nice?

I used VHT spray cans on my engine, despite everyone saying it was rubbish. It looks quite good and seems to stick well enough. I did undercoat it with red oxide primer first though (to stop the engine rusting in between me cleaning it and getting the paint). I don't know if that makes a difference but I am happy with my results.

used brush on engine paint from frost for this[which is so thick it blends into a very smooth finish], and the rocker covers were sent off for a paint finish called "ano colour".

Cheers guys for that,
What I am looking for now is some orange engine block paint,
anybody know where they sell this?

Good old two pack is the stuff you need and the general concensus of opinion is that BL Vermillion is a pretty good match for Street Hemi Orange...I've mixed some and will be applying it in the next week or so, if Mancini Racing come up trumps this week, I can post a pic and see if it looks like a hunky Hemi or a tacky tangerine

Just come off the phone to Hauser Racing, they have the Mopar street hemi orange paint available in tinsn (original Mopar parts I believe).
My engine is all built up now so going to apply a few thin coats so I can fit the beast this weekend!
Cheers Guys!

You gonna post a picture Captain? Be nice to see how it turns out!

Don't even think about using MP engine paint, it is the worst excuse for paint I have ever had the misfortune to have to try and use.....and the colour is way off

Oh!
Thats not good!
I really wanted some paint just touch up what was already there.
Well its on its way now!!
I will let you guys know how bad it is!

Ooops sorry, didn't know you already ordered it ! I hope you had better luck with it, I threw 10 cans on the bonfire

My mate works at halfords , he mixed my paint and put it in spray cans , we found a WV colour that is verry close to hemi orange . i first primed the engine with a good etching primer ( POR8 (also from halfords) ive used this on a couple of engines now and it looks good and is far superior to the old brushing engine enamel , if you need some i will find out exactly what the formula is .

Hiya, it still has not come yet, will have ago, if that fails, I will let you know and try and post some pics, its Duncans old engine from his Charger.

I have the correct formula for Hemi Orange somewhere at home. I will see if I can find it tonight after American Chopper.

Seeing as the boss is not home yet I had a chance to look this up.

I hope it helps?

Thanks Dave, this mopar paint should come on tues I hope.
Sounds like I am going to have to make some up from our local paint factors though.
