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

All,

Two quick questions and apologies if this has been discussed already but
didn't see it in a search.

What is the original color for the Spit exhaust manifold and does anyone have
a recommended brand/color that they have used that is close to original?

Thanks,
