Looking good.
When doing alloy use reducing grades of wet&dry.
then when you're at 800 or so go to a high grade polish.
I use Mothers almost exclusively but that's me.
For metal it's hard to beat AutoSol.
Get some Auto 2 pack and coat them ASAP or they'll dull to battleship grey in a few months.
Preserve the shine. Some things I'll leave raw but they are bits I intend to polish regularly. The clear will keep it trick and make cleaning easy.
2 pack will cope with the heat fron the crankcase but do barrels and heads in heatproof expoy (VHT or similar).
VHT engine coat comes in many colours so you can get a good look.

2K has worked for me on blocks and heads in cars but be careful as the raw metal finish dissipates heat better. For my 20c's I'd just run it a little bit richer so it doesn't get so hot and go for the look.

Quality is a direct experience, independent of and prior to intellectual abstractions.
