But Bill .... That's Blasphemy!

One of the tricks I use for keeing paint on the engines of the Wheel Horses I restore is clean the block real good then get some Ford red high tempeture paint and give the engine a good coating. Now this Ford red is not quite the same shade of red as Wheel Horse used (and now this is a the part that gets me out of a blasphemy accusation), I then repaint the engine with the same paint as the rest of the Wheel Horse which for most of the older models is International Harvestor red! :whistle::WRS::D The high heat paint keeps the outer coating of IH red from burning off. :D

Nothing wrong with that. I've used that trick before also.

Try Bill Hirsh paints. Top notch producs for the auto restoration field, been in business for decades. Two shades of buick red listed at $33 a quart.

Ah ha, now I know why your pullers do good Bill. Its that Ford red paint giving them at least an extra 5hp. :whistle:

I think you're on to something. A little F O R D touch can't hurt.
