Dressing Up An Engine

What brackets/parts would you guy's recommend chroming or polishing?

I'm going with a carb whipple (polished of course) and want to dress it up with some "bling". Alternator bracket, drive oil bracket, etc...I going to go with some Imco valve covers with breathers in a anodized color.

How about exhaust manifolds? I have Eddie Marine thunder that are powdercoated with polished risers...Can I have the manifolds polished or chromed? How about silver plating?

Are these manifolds any good for a blower application?

Thanks!

I polished my thermostat housings. It took me almost 2 hours, but it was worth it.

Try to do as much powdercoating as possible it cleans up easier and hides oil and dust better.
