I was wondering what color the 455 blocks were for the 1969 model year, and if you could tell me where to get this paint.

 

I'm not sure what you are asking, especially with the rest of what you posted. From what you said, it appears that you know there were not any 455 '69 442s.

'69 455s were blue, except the H/O as you noted, and the '69 400s were bronze. Fusicks carry both.

 

Sorry i was in a hurry when i posted.... i was just wondering the 455 color in general for the 69 year... and what i was trying to say about the 455 is i needed some opinions on what to paint it. I know bronze is not correct, but i think it would look better in my 69 442. I will check Fusicks. thanks.

 

if you had a hurst olds in 69 it had a 455 and the colour was red, somebody mentioned por 15 engine paint? not sure if you want the motor to look like a 400?

hmmm looking at the above posts I guess this was covered but then edited, hmmmmm don't need no help to look foolish fellas LOL... i'z fine all by myself..

 

??? what??? lol

 

Actually, RWD 455s were red for 1968 and 1969. Even ones that might have been built in South Gate.

Thank you for clearing that up guys. So fusick has good paint for this?

 

I thought this was correct :-) When I saw the first post i Was like dammit! All these cans of red engine paint sitting here doing nuthin

On another note think I need to shoot any primer first before painting? Got the engine on a stand right now
