Default LS7 engine covers

I have a 2012 ZO6. It has the red engine cylinder head covers.

I can't see any good reason to leave these on.

I run the car on track and it seems to me these would just trap heat.
I've taken them off and unless someone has a good reason, I'm not putting these decorative covers back on.

The bonus is my new Moroso Ultra 40 wires are visible.

Double win.

Mine has been off for years.
