Scotty you should have painted it pink....




Only realy tuff guys can deal with pink!!! ;D ;D ;D

Looks great Scotty just not my personal choise of colors. Did you O-ring the head while it was off???

LOL
Yes, the head is done and running fine.

I think the White paint netted me 7 HP whereas the PINK is only good for 5 HP.

Re:The engine got a paint job.

Looks real nice Scotty. I'd polish the lettering though. Make the letters nice and shiny. I think it would look good. I've debated on doing the same to mine except red or something. Dark blue just doesn't show up that nicely. Who knows though. How much did it cost ya?

Re:The engine got a paint job.

What Scotty isn't telling us is the reason it's white is because he found that color in a 55 gallon spray can and got his work out while painting the parts ;D ;D ;D ;D

Re:The engine got a paint job.

Engine compartment looks good man-real good! I should do something like that-but in about 1 week's time it would look horrible again . Silver wouldn't look that good I guess either-maybe a nice bright green-or maybe Cat yellow!<br><br>J

<br><br>Set it on fire? :P Throw a couple gallons of crude oil over everything under there? That would be a nice touch-very maintenance free as well! Looking forward now to seeing what you have in mind.....<br><br>J<br>
