Drifting
For paint on my underhood items and mostly everything on the car, I use High temp engine enamel. Can find it at most auto stores. Normally over 5 bucks a can and sprays very nicely and covers awesome. I've painted all my shields and dip sticks tubes along with everything else I could under the hood of both cars and it holds up well. Powdercoat is baked at 400 or so...so I would be iffy having it close to the turbo (even the intake). High temp engine paint is generally 600 or even as high as 1000-1200. My S2 has EVERYTHING painted with it. It cleans things up very nicely.
Good looking motor though. Glad to see someone not afraid to tackle a big project like a heart repair!
Also, may have missed it but what brakes did you go with? Did you refinish the calipers? If so, how?

Burning Brakes
Looks great, but that lift arm is smashing your fender and trim piece… happened to mine too, so I'm trying a heat gun to straiten out the trim piece. I had to bend the fender parts back too.
