Who makes the closest match to the correct color in a spray can? i need some '69 hemi orange engine paint for my 440. I am planning to put a new intake crossover block off valley pan on and want to paint it, as well touch up my valve covers. I do not have access to paint spraying equipment.
i read a lot of old posts about this and wanted to get the latest opinions. Is Mopar Performance paint still way off?

I have had good luck with Mopar brand spray paint.

Hemi orange is a dull orange. 440's have a brighter orange.

Pick up a Preval spray bottle from them for about $30.00 http://www.preval.com/ then contact Rob at Mopaints  732-846-1044 and get the correct color and paint.  Rob may take a bit of time but he will come through with the best paint and match there is.  The Preval bottle will come in handy on other products also.
