I am a little color blind so I am not a judge of what is good or bad however you may find this interesting:

I the video and in the comments:

The Bill Hirsch Turquoise looks correct.

I used Bill Hirsch when I painted my 383 and it did look good when painted (to me) however it did not stand up well to engine cleaning and gas when changing jets.  If I paint mine again I may spray a sample of Bill Hirsch and see how good of a match a paint supplier can do and go with better paint.

Hi all,

What is a good source for Mopar turquoise engine paint that is correct in color?

The following is posted on the 62-65 Mopar website; the information came from a mail list member:

Regarding Mopar Turqoise engine paint, the Mopar brand rattle can spray paint from Summit and such for the engine
turquoise is way too 'blue' and looks very unoriginal. I got a can from Eastwood and sprayed the manifold and valve
covers with my HLVP spray gun. Much, much better. Eastwood’s Ceramic Engine Paint Quart 1962-1971 BB Chrysler
Turquoise Item number 51622 ZP (Link verified as of September 16, 2010)
The link was http://www.eastwood.com/ew-ceramic-engine-paint-qt-62-71-bb-chry-turqo.html

The above link no longer works and I did not see any 1962 to 1971 big block Chrysler turquoise listed by Eastwood.
Looks like it was discontinued. Boo.

Any leads appreciated.

Thanks,
Gary H.
