Speaking of paint, I am soon to re-build the original engine for my TR3 and
do not want to cause any deterioration of the original orange handpainted
"TR 3" lettering that is on the lower right side of the block.
Does anyone know what kind of paint this is and the best way presere it
during the re-build?
Thx,

I used POR15 as a primer after soda blasting then painted with
universal gray engine paint from Southern Auto Supply. I am still very happy
with the job 3 years and 30,000 miles later. I liked the gray paint because
it makes everything easier to see (like oil
leaks...) when looking at the engine.

so what has every one used to paint the block and heads. in the old days of
lead paint i used ordinary home oil paint and never had any problem.
any one try rustoleum brand? while the can says good to 200f i know there
is always some fudge there.
thanks
