Joes right, you want Mopar Engine Turquoise....
I've found a color I'm going to test out, its from Duplicolor I think but the code number for the can is 225 Alpine Green Engine Enamel. 7 bucks at Sanels Auto paint department.

Link is not working right, but Summit is a few bucks cheaper. Depending on what these guys do on shipping, might be about the same cost from Dodge dealer.

if you are using a can then you won't find an exact match. you will have to settle for close enough. none of the can stuff out there is an exact match including the stuff from mopar. if you want to use a gun to apply then this guy everyone says has the right formula. http://www.rogergibsonautorestoration.com/index.htm sixpackfrank@aol.com

Where is that wrench I just had in my hand?
I've used this on a 66 383 and my 62 361 and it is a really darn close match, http://www.summitracing.com/parts/vht-sp126/overview/

I know the Mopar "stuff" has been said to actually be "too blue" in color for the Turquoise even tho, the "cap" on the can shows it to be a close match......
I've ALSO heard that Alpine Green AND Detroit Diesel Blue are almost exact matches for the Mopar Turquoise...
I'll be checking into this link to find out more! Thanks Joey!
