Cheers mate

I used the same paint in aluminium silver for my engine, and baked as per instructions.  It looks the part, but the first real run of the engine will be tomorrow so the toughness of the paint still needs to be determined on mine.

Well I was hoping to get engine back in frame this week but I've had problems with the paint on engine .I wasn't 100% happy with it first time .it keeps reacting I've done it 4 times now .still not perfect but I'm going to go with it .got to say it's tested my patience .better news I got a finned points cover of a forum member on sohc4 all the way from Australia it was a bit rough but I had it vapour blasted .then I polished it up came out ok .I also decided to get the stator cover and sprocket cover powder coated .because the paint kept reacting on them .so hopefully next week I can get engine back in .
