I used VHT Newcast to paint the exhaust manifold, and for 3 years it looked like a new manifold, but it's ready for another blasting and paint job as you can see. This is just a temporary engine, so I don't really bother keeping it very clean.

The camera angle makes the fan belt alignment look way off, but it's perfectly straight.

You're missing your engine pans. According to some here, that must attribute to overheating
