Problem is, after 3 years the paint is coming off and the aluminum color is showing through. Does anyone know if I can just repaint this thing with standard black car header paint ? Someone once told me if I used the wrong kind of paint it would decrease the cooling efficiency of engine and it might overheat. Whats the story ? -- Gary Buchholz University of Chicago
