Default Fuel Rail Covers

I am about to get my fuel rail covers painted. I am also wanting to install some AFR heads and a LS6 intake manifold over the winter. Does anyone know if I change my heads and intake manifold from stock to a LS6 intake and AFR heads, will the stock fuel rail covers still fit?

Thank for any help.

They will still work. The outside dimensions will not change enough to effect the fuel rail covers.

However, be advised that if you upgrade to the FAST intake, the fuel rail covers will need to be modified.

The FAST intake has 'larger' flow areas that hamper the ability of attaching the FRC's to the rails without cutting the FRC '****' to allow clearance.

Thanks for the help. Looks like I can spend the money on the covers
and still be ok.

Good luck with the covers. Should work and make a nice change for your engine compartment.
