I've used the high temp silver with no problems so far. It looks good, just don't clean the engine with degreaser!!!! I thought I had silver dirt on my motor when I was rinsing, but otherwise looks good.

I don't think this stuff is gonna flake off, you can stick in an oven at 650 deg. f for 60 minutes and it holds... kinda smelly, but its okay. I'll have pics of the completed engine w/ tranny when we get it hoisted tommorow.
