yea I,m tryin to decide what colour to paint my block,because the car is going to be lime green even inside the engine bay.I know that sub lime green is not a 68 colour but I dont care this is not a matching number car.I was thinkin black for the block.I just know blue wouldn't look good with green.hemi orange might look ok.what do you guys think?

Apparently black paint on the engine block helps keep them cooler so if you really prefer that, and don't care about originality, black would be a good choice.
