I have a 70 mach 1 with a 351W. I am trying to redo the engine to near concourse quality. I just cant figure out which is the correct shade of Ford blue to use. There is ford blue, old ford blue, ford corporate blue, new ford blue, dark ford blue, and lt. blue. Does anyone know what the correct ford blue is? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Doug-

Yeah thats what Im goin for. But what color is the one in the picture? I started off with old ford blue but it didn't match the original valve covers that I bought. Is dark ford blue considered corporate blue?

the closest match from a can is the ford dark blue.
