What paint did you use on those ramhorns? will it hold up to the higher temps? I would like to do the same thing to my rams...looks good so far keep the pics coming




I used VHT 1300-2000 degree flame proof. It will definately hold up.

One thing to consider, black hides leaks well which can make it difficult to find the source.




That is true....well I am going all cast aluminum paint for bell and trans to match the aluminum tailshaft

My opinion?  Paint it the color YOU want it, it's YOUR truck, not mine.

I have taken my time prepping this motor and making it look good before I put it in my truck. It actually looks to clean to even set next to it haha. Well Thhe motor is all done for the most part and I was going t bolt the bell and trans up to the motor but I just car bolt up something that looks old and crappy to a nice motor. I degreased the trans but it looks old and rusty. Should I paint the trans and bell? If so what color? I painted the motor gloss black and intake/exhaust manifolds are vht cast.
