What color to paint my engine?

[LXguy]

Hey All:

I've got a '71 Dart. It's light metallic blue. I'm dropping a 5.9 Magnum engine into it.

I'm trying to decide what color to paint the engine. The 318 in the car is turquoise now. It's pretty similar to the color of the car, so it looks a little strange.

I was also thinking about either like a hemi orange, or maybe that crazy lime green color. I'm not a really big fan of black as an engine color.

Any suggestions or pics are appreciated.

Thanks

Steve

I like the looks of the 273/340 red. It think it would look good against the light blue metallic as well.
