Here are pics of an original EGR valve for my low mile 74 z/28. I was wondering if anyone has had any success replating this type of valve. If so, who did you send it to?

Not even sure this can be done without taking it apart.
MT 7040299 very hard to find!

In my opinion the "gold" plating you want is Yellow Zinc DiChromate...............
