Anyone know what the name/code of the silver color the later engines were painted in? I need to repaint my (sandblasted) head after getting a decomp valve fitted.
cheers

Dogger has that info.
I think he had his powdered.
He's posted some of his build on here and may comment.
If not I know I saw it on ATM forum in the build/restoration section.

Ive used VHT cast aluminum silver brake caliper spray paint. Really a great looking silver and holds up well.

I got the tip on it from Roosty I believe.
