Default started to prep and paint the engine bay and powdercoating the engine

i started to spray the engine bay. i did all of the filler work. and made my upper core support out off 1/2" flat stock. and round tube so it bolt in. and now i just layed the first coat of primer surfacer and hope to have the base shoot by midof this week. i still have to block the surfacer re spray more surfacer and reblock it to make sure its perfect than I'm spraying it with dupont chroma base (gray-purple 9926) and a nice clear. and the engine is getting tore down right now and i already have everything for the powdercaot it will be candy apple red.

so today i got it blocked out and i sprayed another coat of surfacer. so it will be painted by middle of the week. i didnt even have to spray another coat it was almost perfect but i figured another coat will not hurt. and my engine bay will look way better than most people body work on the outside of there cars.
