Do you need to use high heat paint on your engine tin?

I used a high temp paint on mine, but you don't have to.
One thing I would suggest - don't use black. Use a paint color that is reflective and bright. The engine bay of these cars tend to be pretty dark places, and anything to reflect a little light around is going to be helpful - at the very least reduce eye strain during long wrenching or trouble shooting sessions.
