Do any of you guys know the stock engine color on the 3.0L? Especially an older one like my 94. I am rebuilding it and want to paint it the stock color. Now that I have cleaned it down to the stock paint it is a kind of puke green/grey. I am going to take it all the way down to metal removing old paint and rust.

 

I didnt know it had a color. Do silver. And don't forget, high temp paint i believe.

If I rebulit mine I'd paint it silver or gloss black... and YES get the engine paint lots of coast to make it glossy, take your time

 

Just go with black. Gloss is okay, its better to go with a dark color. Dark colors help pull heat out better than lighter...

 

never knew that...cool
