I got them from Zip Products, they make a lot of accessories for Vette's. They look really good on the car, i am actually selling mine now, since they no longer fit with all the **** i have under the hood because of the turbo's. They usually cost about 200 dollars i think from Zip, but mine are used and i would let them go for about 125-100. Let me know if you would be interested.

Re: ne one have CHROME fuel rail covers??? A little tid bit about chrome...
It holds in heat exceptionally well.
Not that it's anything you would notice, but it couldn't be a good thing. Especially if you are on the ragged edge of KR or detonation.
Just something to consider

Re: ne one have CHROME fuel rail covers??? So does a polished surface too.....I remember reading in the old "How to Hot Rod Small Block Chevys" book that a polished or chrome surface retains up to 10 times as much heat as a flat black painted surface....
If I remember correctly, they were advising that you save your money by not buying those trick (by early '70s standards!) chrome valve covers and oil pans and to just paint the stock ones black...sorta using the engine as an oil cooler itself.
Interesting fact, given the temptation to polish all of that sweet LS1 aluminum....
