No info on the cans besides the paint brand info. I'll get ahold of the company and see if they saved the info, will report back shortly.

Re: 66 C20 327, green original engine paint
Interested in this color as well. Does anyone know if a '64 327 would have been the same color? I have seen tables that listed it that way, but they had a * by them saying that this is an assumption.

Re: 66 C20 327, green original engine paint
I just recently bought a 1964 C30 Factory AIR 327 truck , pretty well documented 33,000 mile truck. Heres the valve cover and some engine shots ( much more on this truck has been posted). Another member also just found a 1964 C20 with a 327. We are coming to a conclusion that these are late 1964 factory builds . Possibly the start of these engines for production ?

If the can has a paper label the recipe might be written on the back. Don't know if they still do this. They should have it in their computer.

The last two engines I had have been black. I don't understand black. You can't see oil leaks as easy. I had kinda planned on doing chevy orange, but I like that green. |
Re: 66 C20 327, green original engine paint
This would account for seeing various colors in different years also:

Heres some color samples. One valle cover is a 1963 292 cover. One is a 1966 327 cover and wire holder. The spray card Im holding up to the cover was done by theastronaut , a member here with a can of NOS Green engine paint I sent him.

Heres a 1960 C30 283 with 502 miles in truck green. Many of the larger truck V8s were green.

Re: 66 C20 327, green original engine paint
With your engine mods, intake,cam, heads, etc. how does it drive with turbo 400 in your truck? Difference between stock and your upgraded 327?, is it a 350 crank and rods, in your 327 block?

Re: 66 C20 327, green original engine paint
I have had a couple different phone calls with the paint company and looks like they don't have my info saved for the paint mix. I'm going to need to bring my quart in and have them do a match to it.

Re: 66 C20 327, green original engine paint
Thanks for going the extra mile Cali, there are a lot of folks who would be interested in the formula for the correct color paint for the 292-327 and maybe someday we will have the correct color paint for the 230-250's and 283's!

Re: 66 C20 327, green original engine paint
FactoryStock,
Along the subject of "327 engines in 1964 C 20s and 30s" do you know if the Oakland plant was making big trucks, e.g. C50/60, in May of 64'. I ask because, have a 64' C20 with a 327, suffix is correct for HD truck UG and dated mid May 64. It is a totally loaded truck from CA desert, has three gas tanks. Question thinking about, where did the special order 337s in 64' come from, e.g. Supply line for big truck line at that plant, or did flint specially make these 327s for each, or some plants, to be use in C20/30s. Still confirming that mine is original 327 install, looks like it. O Oakland mid May 1964, engine suffix pad. The VIN is around 170,000. Thanks, Les |
