324 valve cover decal help

I'm redoing my valve covers on my 324 and I don't think I'm steady enough of hand to letter in the Rocket logo with a brush , are there any decals available that I can lick and stick on? Looks like USA Parts has everything but 54-56 decals, whats up with that? I could use a little help finding some or a friend with a steady hand. Thanks ...Tedd

Tedd - it seems like I have seen a stencil somewhere that you could put over the lettering to paint it but I don't know where it was. Sorry I am not helping. You might find a sign painter to do them. Of course that may be a problem now that most signs are computer generated.

I was thinking something like a hard type rubber paint roller. May ba able to roll across the raised letters. May be forth a try, as you can always repaint if it don't work.

The original yellow lettering was rolled on, personally I've never seen an original cover that was without a slight 'overroll', just a smudge of paint on one end or the other.
Just some food for thought....
