I recently had a bung installed on my Canton oil pan to help relieve some crank pressure at high rpm (plumbing it to my valve cover evac system). The oil pan was treated with some sort of gold iridium much like the Moroso pans. Any idea what paint might match close enough to look nice and also protect the new bung and welds from surface rust?

 

This isnt cheap but it is as close as ive seen.

Good find. That is what I am after, but man is that expensive. I was thinking $10...not $50. I wonder if anyone else makes something similar that is more price conscious?

 

I've never seen a paint that can match that kind of finish.

 

Try Testors hobby model paint?
I use them on all kinds of things.
I know they have some gold metallic try red gold and green gold metallic
Thats all the eastwood kit is after looking at it bit of re and green over gold.

 

green and gold is what they told me to do my carb with, adjust coverage of each o adjust tone.

 

Eastwood clear ? Not paint to match, but clear would prevent rust, and not stick out like a sore thumb. Not like a black fitting anyways.
Or paint it black so from a distance it looks like a bullet hole. Can say you out ran the Po-Po.... no ? To far ? lol

 

you damn outlaw.

 

I picked up a Canton 7qt. pan w/pickup on fleabay for a good price and it was a little scratched up, so not pretty. I wasn't crazy about the 'gold' appearance as my under hood is all blue, black or aluminum so I painted it black to disappear with the suspension hopefully. I coated it with self etching primer first, then semigloss black, I'll probably wish later that I had powdercoated it, never ends..

aren't the moroso's anodized?
