I have a 1969 225 cc Buick Dauntless engine out of my 19' Glasply that is extremely rusty. Due to other issues, I had to pull the engine anyway, so I want to knock off the rust and refinish it. I've already removed all of the wiring and exhaust manifold/risers.
I'm thinking about doing the following.
1. Plug the holes and pressure wash the bulk of the rust off
2. Hit any tough rust with a wire wheel
3. Use some kind of rust converter (...POR15...)
4. Repaint engine with Buick Red engine paint.
Does anybody have any recommendations or comments on the cleanup process or cleaning / restoration products I should use?
Thanks
