Default LS3 Fuel Rail Covers

I just picked up my C5Z from ECS after having my LS6 swapped for Camaro LS3 motor. Does anyone know if the factory Corvette LS3 fuel rail covers will pop right in?

Are you say you have a C5 Z06 that has an LS3 engine from a Camero in it. If so, I would thing that the LS3 FRC should be a snap in.

Yes that is exactly what I meant, sorry I typed too fast. Thanks, I'll see if I can borrow covers from someone with a C6 Coupe

I would think that the fuel rail covers would fit, but you're on the right track seeing if you can borrow a set and test fit them first.

Ever get this figured out? I have an camaro ls3 in my c5 coupe. The c6 ls3 covers don't fit at all. I'd sure like to get some to fit though.

Yes they will fit with no issues, check out the composite Holley coil covers, really nice and cheap, $170 or so, and you can paint them any color you wish.

Just some info:

LS1/LS6 have different brackets then LS2/LS3/ and LS7. FRCs are different for these 2 setups. I really wanted to get the Holley covers but they would only fit if I got the different brackets! Good Luck!

I will bet that you have LS1 style coil brackets, put LS2/LS3 style coil brackets on and the FRCs will fit!
