So here's an update since I last posted...


Motor is in, running ( have 55 miles on it so far) and everything seems fine so far.. Although I have a stalling issue I think is related to bad 02's.
The rest of the cars paint work we will probably tackle very soon, and the turbo kit will go back on when I feel the engine is broken in ( 1k mark)

Guys, the work you see took more then one weekend.. We kept fighting little issues for the past two weeks with this, but you are right.. the paint went on one day, and the engine built and dropped in the following week.. None of this stuff is really that time consuming.. It's all a matter of finding the daylight and time to do it, and the money helps!

the color is a Dupont paint, the Hot Hues line of candies..
It's called Molten Candy Orange, with a bright Hot hues silver I can not remember the name of. The actual candy is cheap ( $55 my price, makes 2 gallons of sprayable material) the silver base for this and the clear are where your going to pay.. All in all, this is as cheap as any color ( except red's) to paint.. I have less then $100 in the paint/clear/ect in the engine bay and hood, all name brand paint. the cheap base and clear would cut cost even more.

Shortblock is a Livernois motorsport 4.6L
Fresh Iron block/stock bore
Cobra Crank
Mahle Pistons/rings
Manley H beams
Cobra oil pump
all balanced,ect
ARP studs
Stock heads, cams, intake, t/b, ect

That looks almost perfect Mike. It's good to see a real dedication with what you do. I'm really curious to know when you're going to paint the rest of the car the Molten Candy Orange colour.

I know you had your mind set on the beryllium, but i think you'll find yourself more pleased with this than the saleen colour.
