Actually we ended up redoing ours because the engine paint didn't come up too well. We have now redone it in 2 pac and had it baked.

I used a red metaliic color callled metal cast, comes out awesome. I have only done the coil pack cover as you. I is heat resistant to around 500 degree's but only intermitantly. Might not be suitable for rocker covers

  Agreed. Thing has to be running absolutely pig rich as well. I would worry a lot less about your idle and start going through all your electrical before the car burns down.

  Before and after of reflectors, two coats brushed on. i used a bucket full of hot water to to heat up glue, then pry the lenses out a little with a flathead screwdriver and cutting with a Stanley. I’m not sure how the paint will go but it’s my best chance without dipping. see the reflection in the picture I’m pointing? That’s two coats paint and you can see the state of it in before shot after I cleaned it
