I like the chrome trim with that black myself since you asked but I bet hard to do.

Now you need to do the hard side
You could do the chrome with bare metal foil - you can get it at a hobby shop. I used it on my '66 Dash and it looks awesome.

Jeff, mind if I request you post up how you did it on the restoration forum? It would be very valuable to lots of us.
Machine shop called and my 440 is ready for pick up.
My heads are being rebuilt for THE THIRD TIME since April. I MIGHT get to drive it this year.....

Sounds like you've got a serious problem in your head. Course we all do...

What happened?

First guy-didn't check installed spring height. Given another chance to fix it.
Second time. Didn't check installed valve height. Didn't meet clearance specs. Valves apparently not sealing properly. Shoddy work overall.

Second guy-redoing all the work of the first guy. All new valves, seals and guides for the second time this year.

Engine was entirely rebuilt this year.
