Hi everyone, I'm looking into painting my engine soon, due to it being a little bit filthy and the previous owner has painted the block and rocker cover a disgusting bright yellow.

I'd like to paint the block and rover cover in the correct stock A series blue.
Anyone know where to source this?

I realise you can get the paint code mixed up into a normal acrylic laquer, but can you get it in the heat proof engine paint?

I don't like the generic VHT bright blue.

Cheers

Acrylic laqer is very old. Nissan would have used acrylic enamal.

Reportedly, engine block Datsun Turquois is:
Dupont mix guide mix size
806J HS BLACK 177.2
801J HS WHITE 290.0
828J HS FAST BLUE 373.8
830J HS FAST GREEN 444.4
702OG BINDER 844.0
7030G BALANCER 960.4
