The "colour" is based on the two digits listed on your broadcast sheet under ALT(alternator). If they are 72, as most of what this thread has been showing, then it would be orange. If your 383+2 car is an A/C car, then the two digits would be 78, for 3438 178(stamped on the alternator), the colour would then be green. Is your car an original A/C car? The motor colour for your car would be originally a blue colour, being a 383+2 car.
