    Engine shroud color code - 911S 1968

    Hi everybody!
    While I was searching this information, I found this interesting picture, which I believe is correct...

    Does anyone knows the specific color code for the 2.0S 1968?
    Looks a bit like the vintage Koni shocks... but not sure.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    A little clarification on shrouds pictured.
    The yellow shroud titled as 2.4T, is for 72T
    The green shroud titled as 2.2E, is for 70-71-72E
    The red shroud titled as 2.2S, is for 70-71-72S
    The 73 T E S have the pigmented duct with the small cover, so oil cooler could be replaced. There is a shuttle shape change made late in 73, in anticipation of the CIS runners that need more clearance. The last row of shrouds appear to be late.
    Pictured are 3 S shrouds for 73, note shape of duct. 1st is early original, 2nd is early reproduction, 3rd is late, which carried the shape on into 74.

    Shroud was not painted. In a original you can see the fiber. I think its Chuck Miller who has a formula for dying. Maybe he will chime in. Paint looks pretty but not original.
