Paint it black

Gave my low mileage replacement motor a lick of paint. Spent hours and hours degreasing, sanding, more degreasing etc etc then finally gave it a few coats of Simoniz gloss engine enamel. So many good and bad reviews for all engine paints so I went with a brand I'm used to.




Now to measure up for a set of stainless steel engine mount bolts, going with round bar threaded both ends with locknuts and washers, I know they're not as tough as hi-tensile but they'll do the job.
