i think the block should be the only thing painted....it looks awful when people just tape off the intake hole and spray the entire thing with paint.........

i would paint the water pump blue and through some polished pulleys on. it will offset the pulleys real nice.

what? like do are you suggesting u could polish a water pump if it was painted???
the guy said he might get the eudrashine one so that would solve that polishing thing....
or you could polish the aluminum to make it look chrome-like....
