Don,
Tim and Carl are only referring to the fact that there have been many discussions about the proper color engine paint for the 216, with a lot of disagreements. I don't think there is any "off the shelf box store brand" that comes close. My recommendation is the Filling Station which has a color close enough in a rattle can that will suffice.
