Hi,

PPC do an engine enamel called "BMC Green" which I think is the colour your talking about, Looks almost like black in the picture on the webpage, but in my printed catalogue it looks dark green, Check it out at www.ppc.au.com

You may want to doo a search on "engine paint" to find exactly what colour green you are after, however the following may help.

I think alpine green is the lighter , almost metalic green of cooper s motors , the 850 colour is a dark , almost brittish racing green . No idea on it's proper name though afh001's post sounds right . I used a green from the export range at supercrap as I just wanted to dress the motor up , it's a bit lighter than the original but looks close enough for now on a very tired motor .
