Intake Manifold Paint?

RockinAZJK · Jun 19, 2018

Has anyone painted their intake manifold? Doing a head gasket on my girlfriends 08 3.8 next week and was considering painting the intake manifold a different color.

Does anyone know what type of paint might work best on the plastic?

Plastic? You mean the engine cover? The manifolds aren't plastic.

Any high-temp spray paint should be fine.

The 3.8 has a two piece manifold manifold and the top piece is plastic I believe

Huh. I'd have to look at mine then... Anyway, they have high-temp engine paint at any auto parts store or Lowe's/Home Depot. Should be fine for plastic or metal.
