Thanks! I just came to the conclusion that the last thing I should do is allow some more milestone creep into this project... Otto will be done with 3 boats before I finnish this one....

I would strongly suggest using 2 part Imron or Imron knockoff. Prep The engine with Zinc primer (the green stuff), a couple of coats are required. Stay away from the spray in a can. You would be suprised how good the engine will look with the proper prep and 2 part paint. Remember to grind any oxidation and with the proper paint the engine will look like you just popped it out of the box. I have gone so far as to paint the powerhead but you must strip all the electrical off. Looks cool!! [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]
