Revell 1964 Ford Fairlane 427

Hello all

Well, I decided to try and do yet another non-exotic build.  I found a '64 Fairlane kit that comes with parts to do various versions of the car.  I have been online trying to find out what the correct color the 427 engine should be.  The kit instructions say paint the block red.  But this is a Ford... isn't that a little silly?  I found one site that said all '64 engines were painted black.  Can anyone confirm?

Also, should the floorpan be body color? I really don't know anything about these cars, and it is highly annoying not being able to find ANY answers by searching online.  All I get are photos of custom cars or modern-powered ones.  Or those fancy drag ones.

Can anyone give me a few tips on stock or period-correct details?
