flat black any old paint. gold is actually very bad at radiating heat, mister brain.
Shiny is worse than flat. light is worse than dark. ...I think you know where I'm going with this. |

okay then, Mr. Science, it takes 0.902 Joules of heat to raise the temperature of 1 gram of Aluminum 1°C. It was 203 Joules of heat to raise ice the same...
...I think you know where I'm going with this. BRILLIANT! |

Well are we talking ACTUAL gold, or gold colored.

No, intercoolers made out of ice, duh.
Water is nearly free, just bring a couple to the track with you in a cooler next to your race tires. |
I prefer the old tried and true window A/C unit mounted to front of car. Sleeper? No. Effective? Yes.

What if the aluminum is starting at a temperature of 1,221°F?
NOW WHO IS THE SUCKER well, it would still take .902 Joules to raise 1 gram of aluminum to 1222.8°F. But it would be making its way through your block at that point...so mute point. |

Typically, the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of a material is linear, right until you get to a phase-change point. Then, a large amount of energy is required to actually make it change from one phase to another (eg: melting), and yet no temperature change is observed during this transition.

listen bro. i dont need your shit.
let's just go back to gold ICs. https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1374169054 http://www.mishimoto.com/mishimoto-m...-all-gold.html |

Google turned this up in a boat forum for preparing bare aluminum for paint:
The chemistry behind using zinc chromate is mildly interesting. Look it up if that's your thing. |
