It's a very modern Tata blue now.

That's pretty! It will soon have that unique mixture of oil, mud and more oil covering it.

This one Eric? Its BMC Green. I didnt realize it was POR-15 - not original, but my preferred color for future engines.



For the OP:

Dupli-Color Ceramic Engine Enamel: Detriot Diesel Alpine Green -DE1618

I just ordered a pint of that Austin Healey Green for my rebuild Great Color.. .. I can only hope it will look that good... Does anyone know if that block paint brushed or sprayed on?

[martindktm]

I don't know...Ill I know is that the 3 main bearings 2.25 are green and the 5 main bearings engine are paint red.

Dumb question here...I see on the blue moter that the dizzy & firing order are opposite of my '72...is mine incorrect and two mistakes cancled themselves out?

For those who need or want to brush apply,try POR-15 Buick Green engine enamel. It's not a perfect alpine green match, but pretty close. Also it goes over POR-15 rust paint.

2.25 3 main bearings are BLUE as in BSC Sky Blue commonly often referred to as Duck Egg Blue. There is no green tint in that British Standard Color.
