Liked the looks of the painted eaton's, considering doing this while the blowers off for Steg to port it..Anyone think it would look good Red? I really like the falt black look, but thought with my car being Torch the blower would look good red too...
painting Eaton, which color??

Go Torch Red, it would be different.
Ya red would be diff. U have a color scheme now?
Dont have to much to go on yet, just figured this might look good under there..Black BF pulleys and then the red blower..InArmyWPride said:

looks great..... was thinking of painting my eaton red would match my redfire cobra nice..... plus by the red pulleys to really make it look sharp...
Torch Red Blower
RedFire Blower
RedFire Blower
Those look sweet---Black BF pullies would be even nicer :beer:
Thanks for the chops
i would strongly advise against painting the blower. all of us know how hot those things get. now imagine a nother layer of paint to go through. the best thing for performance would be to even take off the factory paint to distribute the heat better. go do what you want but it doesnt sound like a very smart thing to do. good luck though.
I'm curious to know why Ford paints their engine blocks black? Rumor is that it dissapates heat better.
These things do get hot, but if you're pulling it off to paint it, send it out for porting, and buy a HE. I think that will keep the temps down to a reasonable level.

It is a weird concept at first. Black is the best for heat absorbtion, but yet it has been proven to be better for heat disappation as well.
My eaton will be going black too, but strickly for looks. I thought about the redfire shown above, but I am not too sure about it yet. So far, I am going black...
Polish that bad boy!
Its ported, and I have a HE going in..so im thinking of still painting it..not sure yet though...
