Engine Paint

[News4ge@xxxx]

Some time ago, someone asked about the correct color of engine paint for 1962 
and up. Plasticote Chrysler green and POR15 Chrysler turquoise were 
mentioned. While going through a Summit catalog yesterday, I saw engine 
paint in Chrysler turquoise for 62-71 big blocks, from Mopar Performance. 
It's said to be the right color for these engines. It's available for $5.95 
a can from Summit. I'll probably try some of this. The other brands don't 
seem to be reliable for color purposes. The POR15 paint chips vary greatly 
from one of their catalogs to the next, and the 2 cans of Plasticote I have 
from way back don't match each other, either the plastic tops or the paint 
itself (same name & number on the cans). I'm painting engine parts now, and 
don't want to have mismatches in color when the whole thing is put back 
together. 
I hope this can help someone else out there.

P.S. Has anyone tried the Mopar paint?
