What did you use to paint on the galley there and on the timing chain area? I'm thinking about doing that to my shortblock when I get it back, if it provides any sort of benefit or if it's just aesthetic?

I have sprayed Simple green on a wet towel and hand washed everything in the engine bay and had good results in the past. It takes for ever though lol.

It's red Glyptal. It's used to improve oil drain back. Lot's of the big time racers use it in their lifter valleys and under the front cover area from my understanding..

Well I'm not a big time racer but I sure hope to be in the future. I will have to try this on my 355 and see how it works. Thanks for the info.
