I don't know but why would anyone want to put LS7 branded coil covers on an LS2 engine? That isn't right. That's sort of like putting Z06 badges on your C6.

Since the LS7 is a dry sump configuration I don't believe there is an opening for the oil fill.

I think he's onto something here. Might as well do this right. Put LS7 fuel rail covers on the motor. Put ZR1 badges on the side and shark tooth grille on the front. Throw some C6R skulls on the doors and hood, fake side pipes and now you're cookin. I think there's a special running on the C6R skull decal pack $1.99

Just add a 1 and it could be the new LS21.

Thanks guys I needed to laugh. Sorry Dave but a question like that would only bring the responses you got. It is a sore spot on almost everyone of us to badge a non ZO6 with a ZO6 emblem that is just not right. Now if you were installing an LS7 engine into your C6 then we all apologize.
