Paint Engine Or Match To Car?

Ok guys, as some of you may know I'm trying to have my car driving by the Nats and I'm in the process of swapping in a carb'd 5.9 magnum. I've been debating about engine paint the last few days so I decided to post up a poll about it. Shall I....

A. Paint the engine, valve covers, intake, etc. etc. and make the engine look all nice?

Or

B. Clean the engine up, swap on my new, bare oil pan, new bare intake, somewhat bare front cover, faded black pulleys, red/blue brackets, faded red valve covers, black air cleaner, rusty headers, etc.

If it helps the engine bay of my car looks decent but the exterior metal has a lot of surface rust, couple different colors, interior will be a few different colors. So shall I leave the engine to sorta match the car or paint it up? I'll probably run the car like this for at least this year (probably longer) and will eventually strip the whole car down and blast it and a full rotisserie build on it and hopefully build a torque monster 5.9 to go in it.

Here's a pic of how the car looks...
