Painting the block
Hey Guys,
Somewhat of a n00b question, I know, but I was looking through some of the pictures in the Gallery here ... and how the hell do you all get your motors looking so nice??
I notice that a lot of you have nice brass freeze plugs... did you paint the block first, then have the plugs installed so that they wouldn't get painted over? Or did you just cover them?
What about those of you that have nice clean heads... did you just slap old heads on the block, paint it, and then install your new heads?
What are your tricks?? I just don't want to slap this thing all together, oil pan, timing cover, heads and all, and paint it all at once, because it'll just look like a giant ugly blue blob.
