Default Engine Paint for 427 ford

Gentleman: Hoping everyone here is having good luck with thier project.

Myself, i am beginning a spring project on my car. Actually took it out yesterday at minus 0 degree temperature up here in Canada. She started up great and after all temps got to STD, i took it around the block a couple of times. I wore a touque, haha. No snow on the roads at all so the temptation couldnt be resisted.

So my plans are that now that my engine is running great, i want to pull it out and replace some gaskets (intake mainly and oil pan) due to some leaks. What a pain since the push rods go through the intake. So while i am at it, i am going to put the engine back to show room condition. After all the tinkering over the last two year, the intake has gotten dirty and the paint has flaked off due to what i assume is high heat. So thats basically my question. What product should i use to paint my engine and heads so that they dont flake or burn off due to the high heat. Is there a primer to give good adhesion.

I have a 63 1/2 ford 427 HP out of a Thunderbolt. Dual 650CFM carbs.

Thanks in advance
