First Generation Firebird-L Mailing List ......................................................................... I used a set of aftermarket chrome covers and they were a PITA to keep from leaking. The metal was thin and the chrome did not want to seal using normal gaskets. I tried cork, rubber and finally just used silicone to seal them to the heads. I purchased a set of PONTIAC aluminum ones last year from the dealer. I believe www.gmpartsdirect.com also sells them. They look great and sealed perfect with no leaks. They do not have a baffle and so far I see no need for one.
Of course you can always just get your original covers re-chromed for that original look.
