Frank's current price is 68 per pint. You will still need to get the activator and thinner, but his price is about par. Do a google search for 60626, its the code for the engine paint.
I just bought some PPG, 1 quart of 60626. PPG changed the formula a few years back and if you want the original color, you need to get the tints with lead in them. DP40 is now lead free, I got a quart of variprime, its still an acid ecthing primer.
Here is the PPG formula for PPG DCC 60626
DMC 920 223.4
DMC 906 376.7
DMC 902 387.3
DMC 909 733.3
DMC 907 1368.9
My mixer used grams, this formula might be in parts. It mixed just over 1 quart. I got it in concept acrylic urethane. For 1 quart of paint 101.00, activator, and thinner was another 87.00 The quart of variprime and hardner was another 100.00, for a grand total of 290.00

Keep in mind that rattle cars are not cheap, $10-15.00 a can or so and you'll likely need 3-4 cans to cover a complete engine well. Franks paint is about $40.00 a quart, enough to spray several engines and a better product to boot. Doing the rough math Franks is a better deal on all sides.
