The car is black so the engine compartment is black. I wanted to paint the block black and bolt all the aluminum accessories to it. Heads, intake, valve covers and TTI's will all be natural silver color. Maybe shoot some clear over them to keep them clean.

I hear ya about selling parts to raise money. For the last six months I've been selling anything that wasn't directly needed for the build. I was surprised how many extra parts I had accumulated over the years. Then I started cleaning the garage, selling old bicycles etc. This was great because now I have more room to move the engine hoist around out there!!
