Have you had your timing cover off to see if the paint is still on there?

Nope, but it's still there on the photo

I tapped the oil way to put the pugs in and then flushed them out in the parts washer and the F#@*ing paint rubbed off turns out the paint needs heat to cure .
So no this paint is shit to use .

That doesn't surprise me, but only because the info came from a supercheap sales person
Maybe 2 pac is the go like damon

Yer it was not the big super cheap but the small guys and they are normally good i spent a shit load of time cleaning and polishing the inside of the block I don't think I'll paint it now one of the old guys in the workshop gave it the big Ok .
He did tell me i was going over the top with painting it
I need to get onto the rust and send the motor away to be balanced and honed as our gear is all for trucks BUGGER

I have wheels

Trying to get some work done on the old girl wish i could win lotto and pay Wal to work his magic on her I'm starting on the bits you can't see in the hope that i get better at this pannel work capper .
I've given up on the quick fix up plan and will try a get the body tidy before i finish the motor and hope we have more of the folding stuff by then .
I'm using steel of the half cut i have as the rear of that is better than mine :-]
