i painted engine using dp40 primer and a good single stage paint and it held up real well. looked new 6 years later. but the surface prep is the hard part. I used many many cans of brake cleaner to get the rags coming up clean.

A rebuilt/built engine will never look as good as it did a couple days after you installed it.
