2 bolt block
this is how far I've gotten on my 2 bolt 010/020(high nickle,tin and chromium) casting 350.
pulled it outta the Buick, full tear down and rebuild
the motor mounts and balencer are getting changed so I didn't really give a damn bout over spray

nah...there's none on the springs I sprayed it with the spark plugs in so just the taper is painted. the exhaust ports and the water pump jackets did get over spray but that ain't gonna hurt anything. the mounting surfaces will all be cleaned up with a cookie before anything else is bolted on. its just a cell pic, I'll put up a better one sometime when I have time

But if you paint them like pink, it would really bring the art work together...

You can use roloc discs on cast iron. And they make them in different grits. So for once I'm gonna agree with him.

I've never had any issues. You have to be careful, of course. I would not use it on aluminum.
