I picked up a pair of them on Ebay.  They show up from time to time.

Wayne,

Your best source would be to have your existing valve covers chromed.
You may check your local re-chrome shops for pricing.  If you run into 
problems or need another quote on rechroming I can check our local shop for 
pricing for you.  Additionally, I do have a set of the ultra-rare Edelbrock 
finned aluminum valve covers for the Poly but they are expensive.

Take care,
Gary Pavlovich
