The ony thing I see with usingthe clamps, is with my luck and mechanical skills, somehow they would come loose and I would dropped it on a fender.
You could spend a little extra time and paint the engine. I bought a quart of the Hirsch enamel. I used one of those Preval compressed air can/painting to do the rest of the engine.
I've read somewhere where some have used regular acrylic enamel and had it mixed at a paint store. The beauty of that is if you run out of touch up paint, you can go back and get more. I was as told thatthe color on Hirsch's paint can vary noticeably from can to can. Howwever Hirsh's paint on my engine is hold up fine.
You know I did polish the washers before I put them on.
