Does anyone know what color or the closest color match is for the 216 from a 1940 1.5 ton truck. Also were there any decals saying thriftmaster on the crome rocker cover. Any tips or advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks , Matt

Matt,

Many people have said that The Filling Station has a good gray (gray/blue?) engine paint for 216 and early 235 engines.

There were no factory chrome valve/rockers covers.

This may be the valve cover decal that you are looking for? Most reproduction parts vendors sell that decal.
