    1961 Engine Block Paint

    My 1961 283 Engine Block was just cleaned and magna-fluxed - it is now ready for a fresh coat of Chevy orange paint.

    Can anyone recommend a product that will adhere nicely, be tolerant of heat and also be the correct shade of orange for a 1961 block ?

    Thanks in advance your help !

    I have used on many top flight cars, Krylon DE1620 chevy orange engine paint.

        William,

        For what year or years does your statement apply?

          Joe -

          Shouldn't make any difference - the orange paint Engineering spec didn't change from 1957 until the mid-70's (when it went to blue), and procurement rotated among twelve different paint suppliers.
