in taking apart my motor, i noticed the block and heads are kinda worn and dull looking. i was thinking about painting them. i was either gonna go with red (to match the whole black and red thing) or Mopar Orange. the only thing that would keep me from doing this would be when i go to sell it, if whoever buys it sees it painted, they r gonna know the motor was taken out at some point. ---

paint the block, red I’d say. clean the heads, and paint the valve covers black or something. if they have raised lettering, you can paint them black (or whatever color) and sand down the lettering ---

if you’re selling it anyways, just paint the block black or whatever so Something’s on there why’s the color matter if you’re getting rid of it? ---
