    I would use high temp engine paint and MOPAR has colors available.  Don't quote me on this but I think they were Hemi Orange??  Here is a pic of what I used!

    POR-15 also makes brush-on paint, if you want to go that way. It looks great, like it was sprayed on. They have the Mopar colors too.

    Don't use the Mopar Performance paint, it is like water.  I used krylon engine paint a while back I believe, came out great.  Por 15 is also really good.

    Here is the Por-15 link. This is for the paint, but keep in mind, you have to prep the block too. They also have that stuff too.
