BrianDzimitrowiczJr Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 I know i've seen a lot of guys using Dupli-Color Engine Enemal Detroit Diesel Alpine Green. It's pretty damn close to the original Mack green on the Thermodyne engines.

Mike Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Hey AJ, that looks like a great job. And by finding a decent spot of paint on your engine is the best way to go. I can post the codes if anyone is interested. And it is enamel engine paint of this color. mike Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/27145-correct-paint-colour-for-b61-711-engine/#findComment-137834 Share on other sites More sharing options...
