I'd leave the FMIC the way it is. It's not like it really stands out anyways.

Got most of my new"er" motor put together tonight. It's a stock rebuild motor with around 8-10K miles on her. Can't remember milage as it was rebuilt 7 years ago.

Did a balance shaft delete and some other random shit to it over the last 2 nights. Tomorrow I get my head back from Gosh. The head had some porting done by Steve at HeadWerks back in 02.

The motor (and head and cams) are out of my old Laser from way back in the day. The long block had been sitting in my garage for about 4 years minus the WebCams I stole from it to put in the Galant a while ago.

Do you guys think I should paint the block and pan(Orange)while I have it out? I Degreased it and I think it looks horrible.

I say paint the block black ;)

If I paint it, it will be Hugger orange with a little black for contrast.

I painted my mad tyte JDM valve cover. I'll post pictures tomorrow. I don't know if it will look good having most of the engine orange though :lol:

[tehehodi]

what did you use to degrease that bad boy?

[Kevin 1G Drummer]

Orange would be pretty badass. Do it!

[TalonFiero]

Paint it "ginger"

[1QUICK4]

Paint it "ginger"

Damnit Jim, I'm going to beat you like a red headed step child! :lol:

[goodhart]

Would the orange paint be to match your hair? :rollinglaugh:

I painted my block machinery gray. They stock it at NAPA. I think orange would be a little loud in an engine bay. It's your car though and you don't really see much of the block anyways when its installed.
