I am building a Canadian Forces Seaking circa 1991 (first gulf war) and I am looking for a source where I can cross reference Federal Standard codes with model paint manufactures, any ideas?

Canada had started using Federal Standards 595 in 1983; prior to that, we had our own Canadian Standard 1-GP-12c codes since 1965. I will check my sources and post the answer later tonight.
This is a great site for color referencing:

You can search for color codes or names and get the closest match for many model color manufacturers.
