<div>1) Plastic-kote #224 engine paint is good.</div>

<div> </div>

<div>2) Dupli-color # DE1606 is ford dark blue which is a tweak dark.</div>

<div> </div>

<div>3) Contact Bill Hirsch Automotive 1-800-828-2061 in Newark , NJ for the exact stuff my make and year of engine.</div>

<div> </div>

<div>Bill will tell you buy enough to do the whole engine, 3 cans??,

plus one extra for touch ups because ALL paint varies in color slightly

from one batch to another as it is mixed so the next time it my be a

tweak lighter or darker in the next batch that is mixed up…Just like

car exterior paints. Even with computer mixing…..Nothing is perfect

anymore.</div>
