Default Valve cover source for Merc MX 6.2 MPI?

Does anyone know if there are aftermarket valve covers available for a Merc 6.2? I'm having an EMI exhaust system installed soon and I'd like to dress up the engine further with powdercoated valve covers. I've found many aftermarket for big block Chevy apps but none for small blocks. Any ideas? Thanks in advance for your help....

Try here, I just rebuilt mine to 383's, and I used some of these. I got new heads also, but they were still center bolts.

Cool, I haven't heard of them before. Looks like they have nice options, etc. Thanks! Anyone else know of any sources?

Summit, Jegs et al should have a wide choice of valve covers. Have them painted or powder coated to your taste.

I found a nice set at Summit made by Billet Specialties. Now for a dumb question, can polished aluminum be powdercoated as is, or would prepping the surface be necessary? I hope I can send them out for coating just as they are. Thanks for the help everyone!
