Yep, I painted it in the truck. Would have preferred to take the motor out but I didn't.

I scrubbed the whole thing multiple times with simple green. Then sanded the areas of loose paint and simple greened again. Then put a light surface on the whole thing with a green 3m pad. A wipe down with denatured alcohol right before paint.

I used some high temp primer that the owner had lying around. Then Duplicolor high temp engine paint and lots of masking tape.
