I just sandblasted the air cleaner on my 71 302 and I'm looking for the correct blue paint.  Everything I can find says that I should use duplicolor 1606 (ford dark blue).  But that color seems darker that it was and darker than the engine is.  I dont know if it was incorrectly painted in the past, but all the pictures of 71-73s seem to be lighter.  It almost looks like duplicolor 1601 (ford blue).  Anyone know what it should be?
