Default anyone know of chrome valve covers for lt1?

Im looking for some polished aluminum or chrome valve covers for my 96 to help dress up under the hood. I have found a pair but really unsure of whether they will fit or not. (here is the website...
(Proform/1 pair tall with baffle polished late-model die-cast valve cover with center hold down for small block 1987 and up engines (141-130) | Valve Cover | AutoZone.com)).
Or if anyone has another they are sure of please let me know. Thanks

I've ran the same ones in black (141-131) for the last 9 years. You have to grind a small spot on the alt for clearance. Simple job.
