Does anyone have any tips for cleaning and painting an engine bay? I have burn marks from an old engine fire. Now that the engine is out of the car I would like to clean some of that mess up before I drop the 3sgte in.

Well you need to move the brake hard line out of the way then sand and prep like for painting the outside of the car, rustoleum paints are pretty tough, their professional enamel is good stuff but it takes a long time to dry by air, so get a good heat lamp and expect a good 48 hours with the heat lamp on it to cure it after the initial 4 hour dry to the touch time.
