I'm going to.. I have couple of good condition heat shields that I'm going to put on when I'm ready to bolt everything on.. I still need to put Garfinkle's oil pan brace and get his motor mounts.. Everything is half bolt up.

FWIW, the silver DEI silicone paint/sealant (good to 1500 F.) works great on the heatshields. I just used a sanding pad, rinsed with some reducer to clean and sprayed. That was two years ago and it's stuck really well. Maybe dulled just a little, but doesn't seem to discolor at all.
I think I have a pic if you want it, but again, nice detail.

Thanks for that info Jim. I will have to try that... Last engine, I used the high temp ceramic paint but it was red.. I would like to go flat black this time around..

Here is another shot of the engine..
