Default Valve Covers

Im wondering what there is out there. I want to relocate my coils and have smooth valve covers. I know Katech and Abear have some really nice valve covers, but I was wondering if there are any other options out there. When I was searching I saw some valve covers that had "chevrolet" on them but couldnt find them for sell anywhere. Please let me know where to buy them and if you have pics of them please post them! Thanks!

No part numbers but call Brian at SDPC and tell him you want the same valve covers Kevin McDonald has. Point him at this thread if he has any questions.

I'm drilling and taping them this weekend with AN-8 fittings.
