98valk,

I read a while back that the Dupli-Color DE1615 Ceramic Aluminum Engine Paint was a good match to the factory engine paint color.

check it out... should be the answer your looking for.

Thanks John,
that was on my list to go check out.
need to look into type of ceramic they are using, they state it dissipates the heat. I don't want that, esp. on an aluminum cylinder head. And a ceramic coating doesn't dissipate heat.

I thought this stuff looked right for the final drive... I'm
not at home now, isn't the final drive pretty close to the
engine color?
