I am just at that point where the engine (cvh) is all nice and clean and I will be putting it all back together very soon. Can't decide if its work painting the block and or head as they both look quite good just all cleaned up.

If I were to paint can anyone here recommend a paint (type/make) ? Also can the same paint be used for both? (I know silly question - but I bet someone will have a reason to use different paint on each)

Good old Hammerite Smooth is hard to beat, wears well and surprisingly no heat issues. Used it a couple of times.
