I am almost done putting my engine back together.I had it out so I decided to repaint my tins and fan housing. It looked like crap so I said what the heck. I kind of like the way the engine looks but the intakes for the carbs look horrible in my oppinion. They are cast and have an unfished look. Is there any reason why I would not want to paint them. I am thinking about flat black. In my oppinion it would be a cool conbtrast to the blue engine tin.Le t me know what you think!!!

I am thinking about flat black. Anything but flat black! You want the intake temp as cold as possible. Flat black absorbs heat better than pretty much any other color you can throw on there, thus heating up your intake. The best would be something highly reflective. Like chrome.
