Powdercoating an engine block

[Riaanc]

Hi All,

I did use the search function, but was unable to get a clear answer to my query.

I would like to powdercoat the engine block of my race car. It is a VW in line 4 cylinder block.

Will it adversely affect cooling, it is a watercooled engine?

I am considering a silver/bright metal coloured powder to go with the head etc.

Thank you,

No it will not effect the cooling. I have done coating all all my race motors and never had any problems.
