I have a 71 LeMans with the 350 engine. Could someone please tell me the correct color for the engine? I do not think it is the same blue as a GTO, and before I paint it the Pontiac #208 I'd like to be sure. Thanks

Pontiac engines fom 1971 to mid-'73 were painted a light blue color that tended to turn green with age and heat. This non-metallic blue color is slightly darker than the 1965 and earlier color. The TRW rattle can number for the correct color is 630208 and may be the same as your #208.

The #208 that you have is a plasticote color for 59-65 Pontiacs. It is commonly used for 71 and newer because the correct color is not available in spray cans.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
