Git_Er_Dun New Guy G Joined: Sep 2011 Posts: 39 Mass, USA	I am getting ready to paint the engine in my 1951 216 ci 1/2 ton. I am trying to find out what colors the original engine components were painted. What are the colors for the valve cover, block, air filer, generator, etc. Does anyone have paint codes or know where I can buy the original color paints for this truck?
