Try here but it is very pricy!!!!
I bought just some palstic wire loom today in red and put it on and it adds quite a bit for about $5.30 at your local auto zone.

Ya ,I need to jump on my vendors,I have the tailights and hoods and stuff like that but none of them knew anything bout motor dressup for that motor,I just hate to run through the judging lanes with a phat a$$ truck and pop the hood and be stock.while I think the stock motor looks great but everyone has one ,ya know.I really want valve covers,I might order a set of gm and have them polished.

I found a document about painting the stock valve covers on a ls1 car. Check it out, it should be the same for a truck.
link
Also I receive a parts book from stylin concepts for chevy trucks & they have a whole bunch of stuff like polished covers & carbon fiber covers for about anything under the hood & inside the cab.

So is there no one who makes chrome valve covers for us 99+ boys? I am wanting to order the set from stylin that is paintable and just lightly hit the engine with a bit of chrome...
