Where did you get high heat gloss paint? The last stuff I used sucked Home building centers have their brand of high heat blk gloss, works great. Did my engine 3 yrs ago, still nice and glossy.

No oven bake. Other than exhaust systems and engine cylinders, paint for the cases doesnt need to be extreme heat paint, and paints that need to be baked will work cure from the heat the engine creates. But untill you've run up the engine a few times the paint will remain a little tender. Tried and true, saves stinking up the wifes oven and kitchen.

I've used VHT gloss black caliper spray paint from canadian tire on engine cases and my exhaust with good results. I baked the cases using the directions on the can. Turned out well. It did blister slightly on the head pipes on the triple, it was fine on my rz exhaust though.
