Jim Carter truck has the correct blue/gray color. They want $45 for a quart and I feel thats a little high. For my 235 I used Ford gray to get real close to the correct shade. I think if you put them next to each other you could tell. Most of the chevy engines you will see are Orange because thats what people think that are supposed to be until you inform them of the other colors. I get so many complements about what and I'm glad you went with the original gray when I'm at shows. The dupli-color Ford gray is about $6 a can so you can't go wrong. Here is two pics of two engines I did in Ford gray and clear.
