It might rust due to condensation, if you live in SOCAL then go for it but if you live in canada, dont. it all depends on temperature change and weather, I say coat the whole thing with ceramic paint both inside and out.

just look at it this way: if you're lucky and you're cool enough your motor will blow before you have to worry about it.
