Painted/Powder Coated Engine pics

Hey guys, now that my engine is out I am thinking of ways to dress it up a bit with some black and white (car will likely be white in the long run). How about posting some pics of different engines with various color schemes for some ideas?

I am in the process of getting some engine components powder coated - should have back together by the end of the week - will post then.

Here's a latest picture from my rebuild project. The valve covers have been powder coated:

Love it! Did you hand paint the P-script on the upper covers?

I just took a block of wood with sand paper wrapped around it and sanded the raised letters, make sure you keep the wood square to ensure you do not scratch the cover you just painted!

PS: the fan and housing have also been powder coated.

Thanks
