What would consist of a normal engine dress up? Where would I find these parts?

Valve covers, w/ matching hardware, gaskets, wire looms, breather. I think mr gasket makes that kind of stuff mostly for carbed cars.

This is from the guy with cleanest fox I have ever seen. I may be biased though since my car is the same color scheme. ( Have you fired it up with the SC yet?)

I just took off my valve covers while I was fixing some small vac stuff. They are the stock 90 valve covers, and all I did was sand them down, and clean them well, also I used carb cleaner to get all the loose stuff off. Then I painted them Ford blue with high temp glossy engine paint. They make my engine compartment look 10 times better, especially since i have blue wires and a blue bracket for my aluminum radiator.
