Re: Engine painting what is the correct color
Chevrolet Engine Orange.
The intake manifold, exhaust manifold, and valve covers were on the engine when it was painted so they would have some overspray on them as well. The key to a long lasting paint job on an engine is surface prep AND very light coats until covered... just enough paint to cover allows the heat to dissipate through the paint without burning it off as badly.
