Hi Guys,

The newbie is back !

I pulled the valve covers off yesterday and want to paint before reinstalling.  Can anyone tell me what the correct color is ?  I'm on Amazon and there are a few different GM engine paints in blue.

Seems our "go-to" engine paint supplier is still out of stock of "Cadillac Blue" (1949 - 1976) in spray cans. Quarts are listed however.

If you want spray can only, this appears to be the correct color.

A Cadillac Motorcar is a Possession for which there is no Acceptable Substitute
