Low buck 360 build
Time for final block and other parts cleaning and paint....
I blasted the living hell out of everything with the pressure washer. Everything super degreased and scrubbed. Lots of cleaning with the engine brushes. Put it all together with a few screws and bolts. That way I didn't have to mask anything off. At least not too much. This engine is going to have a spray rustoleum job. It's cheap and easy :D
Before primer:
After primer:
I used the rusty metal primer. Sprayed 4:3:1 paint/ thinner/hardener
I then mixed the red and yellow to make something kinda like orange. It didn't turn out as great as I'd have liked but I'm still quite pleased with it. I think I spent $30 on paint and thinner and another $10 in hardener. And I have lots of paint leftover.
