"I am restoring a 312/215 HP in my 1958 Century Coronado,

Does anyone know what color the motor should be painted?

I have a 64 resorter with a light green either 272 or 292, but the motor that came with the Coronado
is dark blue. Did Century change colors?

Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks in Advance,

I have sprayed my engine in my Lyman (272) in Imron the original color, which had to be custom matched. The color does not exist to buy commercially.
