Default Coil cover options...

Reading this forum has just cost me a bunch of money... so now maybe you can help me out.........

I just purchased a Kenne Bell Supercharger for my Z06 and will have Jeff install it for me in the near future...... (Thanks Jeff! )

I don't like the exposed coil look. I have searched and read about moving the coils. Not a bad option but........ I was wondering about other options.....

Are there coil covers that will fit a Kenne Bell?

Can the stock covers be trimmed to fit?

Do the Abear rocker covers, that hide the coils, work with a Kenne Bell?

What other options are there?

Thanks in advance..........

If I remember correctly... don't quote me on this, but the abears wont fit with the kb. Your only option would be coil relocation and powdercoating your valve covers, or getting a purty set and getting them done etc...

I have a KB and there is no way the abears will fit.You'll need to do a coil relocation.
