Powder coating is best, however make sure you have someone with experience do the job. I believe there are many different colors available now. Prep for job is a must and whoever doing job should have all equipment.
I used high temp paint for my intake and valve covers (86.5) about 8 years ago. Most of it still looks very good, however I did not know at the time the correct prep for the job. The intake needs to be outgassed (baked) for awhile to remove all oil or adhesion problems will occure. This was my problem in a few areas, but I have learned to live with it and you need to look hard to see them.
