Hi, Can anyone tell me what color a 230 Cubic inch L-6 was in the 1963 C-10? Pretty sure it was not Chevy Orange... Was it the Blue color? PLEASE Help if you can. Thanks! rico_bob :)

Most likely Orange. But I know for sure a 283 v-8 in 1965 came gray. I have my dads 65' he bought new & the engine came gray.
Have a great day!

My '63 was all original (rough and dirty) when I got it. The paint left on the oil slingin' 230 was the light blue when I power washed it. Repainted the 250 out of a '78 the same color. Looks oh so stock.
