Do I need high-temp paint for painting the engine tin?
I am using PPG single stage Phoenix red.. Do you think this will discolor from the heat? Primer is PPG DP, same question will these two products be okay with the engine heat baking them?

I used some high temp engine paint in ford red on the top side and used ceramic header paint on the underside. a little overboard yes, but i figured if the ceramic stuff helps so much with getting rid of heat, that it would possibly save any paint from bubbling up top.
