Looks cool. Maybe not $160 cool, but cool.

 

Yea...not for that price.

 

I bought a set for my build.
Did not like the price....

I like the clean look, but they may require a lot of modification to fit the car.

On mine, they will hit the AC box (if you have AC) &also interfere with the Alternator with the Vette brackets.

 

Have no ac due to shaving the firewall and ill be running fbody brackets(idk if there different)

 

i bet those could easily be fabbed yourself from regular SBC Gen II valve covers, little modifying goes a long way... infact, maybe ill try it and make some money off it for half price!! (put that plasma cutter to good use!! haha!!)

 

I'm not really feeling them. I like the GTO and Corvette covers from the factory and would like to work a set over and put em on mine

 

Honestly those covers really make an LS look like a BBC, with the large covers and the evenly spaced headers can really make you do a double take.

I saw Holley's truck at SEMA last year or the year before and I was like "Cool, a big block in that truck" and kept walking by, for some reason I thought something looked funny and then I realized it was an LSx with those covers and headers. The LSx had a Victor intake and a carb on it, too.
