Where to get nice Valve Covers

I want to get a nice set of valve covers to dress up my 91 formula. I like the Heartbeat design, but have not seen it in the center bolt type. Also I plan on going to AFR 190 Heads and roller rockers eventually. Will the stock height ones fit that stuff?

Any ideas where to get some?

see that thread, they are custom engraved for centerbolts, the are tall covers, so they will clear roller rockers.

IMO the '68-74 Camaro Z/28s had the nicest valve covers. They were finned cast aluminum peices with the Corvette crossed-flags badge on the driver's side valve cover. They only came on the Z/28 (302), LT1 and L82 powered Camaros and the LT1 and L82 powered Corvette.
