Default underbody painting

I am about to do a motor swap in my 93 T/A. It is dark green & I have considered painting the car black if I can find an LS1 Firehawk front end. While I have everything out I was contemplating painting the entire underside and engine compartment with either some sort of undercoating or with some Rhino Liner bedliner crap. I'm also going to drop the fuel tank to put in a walboro fuel pump while I'm doing it so I will have access to everything.

The car ahs absolutely NO RUST now and it isn't driven when it rains or snows, so I'm guessing it is probably never going to rust regardless, but while I have everything out this is my chance to do something on the bottom side.

Anyone had any experience with using something like Rhino Liner on the whole underside? I am a bit concerned that it cracks then traps moisture.
