It is generally accepted that the darker colour is correct for FE and FC. AFAIK there isn't a spray can available for Holden engine grey. You will need to have some made up. The number I have is 393-10367 but I am unsure if this is a dark or light colour. I use Prism paints in the West of Melbourne who make up the right colour for me from their old charts and I have never found out the number he uses.
Hope this helps Ken Title: Re: grey motor color Post by: RET on November 25, 2009, 06:51:01 PM If you're touching up, you can always take the rocker-cover down to your local paint shop and have it colour-matched. That's what I did.

It's also worth noting that a Paint Shop can also make the formula up in an engine enamel either brush on or in a spray can. I had a litre made up in a tin but needed to get into some nooks & cranny's, so I took back what I had left & they made up a large spray can for me, plus gave me back what was left in the tin I think this may be the paint no.
