    Simple bro

    Heres a quick walkthrough, now its a B Series but its essentially the same, just remember the longer you spend on prepping it the better the finish. Im in the middle of doing mine, not sure if its mentioned in the walk through but make sure to remove all the gaskets before using the Nitromors even the spark plug gaskets ;) nitromors goes nom nom nom on rubber.

    Also if the gasket looks any way worn you will want to replace it. and get pics up

    Hope that helps you

    **edit**
    Regardless of what people say you DONT need high temperature paint
