[Spits] Manifold Paint Color

[John Macartney]

John
 
As I recall from all new cars up to 1972 and later years that I have
seen subsequently, the exhaust manifold was painted in a heat resistant
silver. For HR paint at the time, it was quite good and didn't burn off very
fast. As I'm in the UK, I don't know the colour names and ranges in the
States. However, if a US enthusiast can give you that detail and then maybe
you could get yours ceramic coated in the same or very close to?
 Cheers,
Jonmac
