I just had this conversation with a couple of other Pontiac friends. I painted my 72 engine but thought it was to light. The picture of the intake is an original paint 71 intake manifold. Apparently Inline Tube sells a series of Pontiac engine paints that are supposed to be closer to the correct colors for the specific years. I might try one over the paint on my engine.

Your original manifold compared to my manifold and valve covers look pretty close. I agree, I think your new engine paint needs a touch of green. If you hadn't found it before, check out the thread I posted in Mesca's post. Lots of spray outs to compare.
