crome is a tuning platform, Chrome would be stupidly hard to keep looking decent in an engine bay

I have never done that but what i would do is take it down to the chromer and let them qoute it. Is it d or b? You would think that if it was a b series valve cover that it would have to be stripped of the rough coating.

Chrome spray can. Cheaper and will probably last longer than a true chrome finish in an engine bay.

Chrome looks better on a muscle car IMO ... go stainless polished look Ftw! Look in the DIY forums on repainting it. or
