I like the edelbroke valve cover's. what intake you going to use on it and can I ask why did you put it in before the intake is on ? Is there a upside to it ? when i did mine i even wired the starter then plugged the it in to the fire wall and ran the batt strap up. Wasn't laying on the ground trying get those little nuts to to start on the solenoid. Im lazy like that.

Why would you spray paint the intake surface on the heads ?

I always save the old intake gaskets and tape up port and water passage openings and put them on the head before spray painting the intake side.

You might be OK if the paint is sprayed on thin and even and you're using Mr. Gasket intake gaskets.
