I used POR 15 "Ford T-bird Red" engine paint years ago on my B20 and B16.

It took a long time to cure and though red, it had a more pinkish hue than the Volvo original color to my eyes. It was weird though because over time it seemed to become more red and closer to the factory color.

The POR 15 paint also left a much smoother finish than the factory paint which was nice for cleaning, but didn't have that "factory" look.

Not sure if I'd use it again, but it did seem to hold up pretty well for almost 15 years.
