Want to paint engine parts for a 39 motor.Engine and trans. is green, but what is painted black&what is the proper gloss?I've seen listing in Eastwood catalog for underhood black at 10-20% semi-gloss but is that correct for original look?Also is there a recommended brand of engine paint.Thanks
 
:)Hey Gary,A good rule of thumb is.....cast iron parts are green,steel sheet metal parts are gloss black,genny is gloss black and exhaust manifolds are grey.Hope this helps.diz
