Does anyone know how to get matching engine paint for a 83 / 84 PCM 351 for my 84 2001? Its a gold tinted silver color. I just want to touch up and therefore want a close match. Perfection is not my goal. I bought a can of "Cast coat aluminum" from the auto parts store which had a sort of silver gold color cap. not even close, its a silver colored paint. thanks Doug |

Doug, I think it was a plain silver. I believe the gold tent comes from age and heat. ------------- 83Ski |

Thanks for the reply, I learned that you are correct about that. Fred at New England Correct Craft in Rochester NH set me straight. Thank you! Doug |

The auto parts store silver metallic is close enough. That's what is on my 351. ------------- |

Keep trying, I've seen plenty of these gold 82-84 engines. http://s134.photobucket.com/user/kfleisch/media/Correct%20Craft/82snKGW08-03.jpg.html" rel="nofollow">  http://s134.photobucket.com/user/kfleisch/media/Correct%20Craft/82b234567.jpg.html" rel="nofollow">  http://s134.photobucket.com/user/kfleisch/media/Correct%20Craft/82snKGW09-04.jpg.html" rel="nofollow">  http://s134.photobucket.com/user/kfleisch/media/Correct%20Craft/82snWBB01-10.jpg.html" rel="nofollow">  http://s134.photobucket.com/user/kfleisch/media/Correct%20Craft/82snROW01-05.jpg.html" rel="nofollow">  ------------- |
