LS engine ignition coil covers

I saw on Possmguts "disk brake backers or not?" thread a really neat LS engine ignition coil cover. Did he buy it or make it?

Re: LS engine ignition coil covers

I didn't see that thread. Did it make it kinda look like a Big Block? Holley makes some that makes it look like a rat motor. You could also go to Speedway motors and look there I saw some covers tonight while I was in the restroom doing "research". Jim

I'm also running Holley's Coil Covers. Lots of modifying to use them with a 5.3L truck motor in the stock position in my 72.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

I'm running mine on a 6.0 LQ4 using CPP stock location engine mounts but i have also cut out the entire stock firewall and made it to fit the covers tightly.... but your enigine bay looks very clean
