Post pics of your chromed out engines...or any dressed up engines

I am interested in chroming out my 350 engine. Does anybody have pics of their chromed out or dressed up engine? Please post them. I want to get ideas on how to dress up my engine, with chrome and colored wires etc. Let me know what you did to it, and how much it cost you. Thanks.

-Removed all air conditioning and heater related items
-Edelbrock signature series valves covers and matching air cleaner
-K&N 14x4" air filter
-Power steering pump removed
-Low-mount alternator
-Electric drive for water pump
-Mr. Gasket Chrome thermostat housing

All that stuff gives it a very clean look and I'm sure there's ton more I forgot to mention. The biggest difference was just repainting the whole bay a nice glossy black.
