I like the color of your block, what type of paint did you use for that?

**MythotiK** · 01-30-2008, 10:55 PM

Actually that is just a block sealer the machine shop uses...The block is now painted low gloss black...

Here is a link to see what the block looks like now...

What's your machine shop's #? I'd liek to know what the block sealer is so I can utilise it... My machine shop uses cast grey paint...
Nice looking motor man!

I always thought those were the best looking Ford trucks, probably from growing up around them
