What color would a '70 383 4bbl be in a '70 charger? Im thinking street hemi orange?
It depends.
What transmission? With or without A/C? Do you have the original carb? If yes, what is it?
I dont think you understand the question 69 Coronet,he is just wanting to know the engine color of the 383-4bbl.Im pretty for sure its hemi orange.But cant gurantee.I know I have seen pics of some of those cars with blue engines in them,but didnt pay attention to what they were,more like a 318,could have been a 383-2bbl.car.If you dont get a direct answer here head over to www.1970chargerregistry.com and ask them,they will for sure know,and register your car there while you are at it.Chris

"N" code, then yes.
All 1970 383 4bbl cars are VIN-coded "N" & all 1970 383 4bbl cars are NOT painted orange!

 short answer - "It depends."
Broadcast sheet will indicate which carb was originally installed, and lead you to the correct color for the engine. Chrysler Blue vs. Street Hemi Orange. More info is needed, what do you know about your own car?

If it's a manual transmission without A/C then you have the 087 engine assembly which is the orange 335 horse engine.

I meant to say no vinyl top, sorry 
I see so many 2nd gen chargers with vinyl tops I almost think they came standard

All '70 383 4bbl Chargers with 4-speed manual transmissions had Holley carburetors and were painted "street HEMI orange".
Even the A/C cars??? 
 now you are making me work, aren't you?
383 manual - E & B-body - with ECS (N95).......... orange HP engine 335hp
---------- Holley R4217-A ----------part number 3418 537 on b'cast 37
383 manual - E & B-body - w/o ECS................... orange HP engine 335hp engine on b'cast 084 wA/C & 087
---------- Holley R4367-A ----------part number 3418 536 on b'cast 36
383 Manual - E & B-body - w/o ECS & with "fresh air" (N96). orange HP engine 335hp
---------- Holley R4736-1A ----------part number 3512 964 on b'cast 64
383 Manual - E & B-body - with ECS (N95) & with "fresh air" (N96). orange HP engine 335hp
---------- Holley R4738-1A ----------part number 3512 974 on b'cast 74
I recall making this list of the 1970 383 4bbl carbs - here are the manual transmissions 3 and/or 4 speeds - All Holley - All ORANGE
It seems all that mattered was ECS vs. non-ECS & N96 vs. non-N96

No such thing as "vinyl top delete" the vinyl top was a $100.00 option on any '70 Charger.
V08 paint=trim and vinyl roof edit waiver.Doesnt that code mean vinyl top delete?

Nope. V08 means it was not a recommended color combination.
A vinyl top was an option, so it could not be ordered, then deleted, that would be silly.

my dad's charger (69) was a 383 4 bbl dual points (he thinks) with auto and a/c - it was blue
but he also remembers going to get new brake shoes for it and had a really hard time, ended up getting ones for "318 cars", not a BB charger according to the parts store
