I have brushed ceramic paint on and it will lay down to the point you cant see the brush strokes. Using a ceramic based paint is a huge advantage in making it lay flat, and it has great oil/gas/heat resistance. With the block cleaned, and taped, I set a couple “dummy” parts to make it less of a hassle to mask, a spare valve cover (or if you know you are going aftermarket), a 3d printed oil filter housing I had for testing, etc. Time to clean the block up and prep for paint, thankfully I had steam cleaned this motor before I brought it in and it was pretty clean, just some spots behind things like the accessory bracket and other hidden pockets of dirt to clean up.

Now that the ARP headstuds are install ( you will have to take the cam ladder off to do this) seal the ladder back with an anaerobic sealer and finish the timing chain install. This is the timing kit I use for locking the Cam and crank down, there are several options but you are going to need one. I am going to tear this motor down and do a headgasket (installing headstuds – not required) timing chains, water pump, thermostat housing, oil filter housing (stock will fit the mk1 with some gentle hammering on the core support to clear the cover), oil pan (adding a reinforced plates to the steel pan).
I will try to differentiate that when I come across it. here is how I go about installing one into a mk1, some of this will carry to other chassis, some of this is NOT REQUIRED but rather how I like to do things. So you’ve decided to jump on this 5cyl train? Great idea.
