Now I feel like I'm making some progress. Got the newly rebuilt engine back in!

Thank you. I think it is the dupli-color engine enamel -bright red. I thought about the green you used, but didn't think the plaid valve covers would look right with the green. Next is to paint my rebuilt heads and get them on!

Yeah, the plaids will look much better with the red. One thing about the green is it really shows the dust and dirt. Constantly having to wipe that motor down! But that's because the truck is a daily.

Making a bit of progress putting the engine back together. Hope to get it running in the next few weeks so I can get the front clip back on. Not sure if I like the silver valve covers or plaid better?

Have to agree with Rich if you want another opinion.
