Holley’s cast aluminum valve covers for GM LS engines provide a fresh, refined look without the need to relocate the coils. There’s no question the factory “coil on cover” design gives the LS that signature high–tech look, but the factory brackets and coil location leave room for improvement. Clean up that signature look with Holley’s LS Valve Covers! They incorporate a radiused shape, angled coil mounting, and a billet fill cap. Plus, the coils mount directly to the cover with no need for a bracket in–between. They fit most popular LS series engines and come in Black Krinkle, Satin, Natural Cast, and Polished. Or, paint to match your vehicle’s theme!

• Angled coil mounts deliver a smooth clean look
• Retain the high-tech look and performance of “coil on cover”
• Eliminates unsightly OE style coil brackets
• 4 finishes (Natural Cast, Satin, Black Krinkle & Polished)
• Billet aluminum oil fill cap
• Reuses original gaskets and bolts
• Fits all LS engines using LS3 or similar coils with 72mm bolt spacing
• Clearance for .750” lift cam with stock style rocker arms
• Utilize proven OE style baffles and vents

If I were in the market (I actually like the FRC's) those would look sick painted/powder coated body color....

If they don't, we carry the taller Yella Terra Valve Cover Seals for $42.

They worked great on my Z: modified the FRC's to cover the wiring harness, but you can still show off the valve covers:

The Holley valve covers look great.

Are the valve covers available with the coils mounted normal to the covers like stock? Would like a set, but the position and angle of the mounted coils in some pictures looks like you might need different wires. Or maybe, its just the picture?

The coils bolt directly to the valve covers. That's the only way they come. The stock wires work just fine.

Thanks

Yes, LS2 coils work.

Thanks

I think these look really good and I'd be all over the black crinkle coated set for my LS7, but there are two things that are causing me not to buy these.

1. The slant of the coil packs are different on both sides (coils slant to the rear on the passenger side and slant forward on the drivers side)

2. The forward coil on the drivers side is not spaced evenly with the other coils because of the relocation bracket used to move the coil away from the alternator. I almost think that if Holley had angled them to the rear like the passenger side, you wouldn't have needed the relocation bracket for the forward coil. And after reading, I guess I have to cut the bracket for the LS7.

I think the crinkle set would killer with Bruce's Billet Coil covers.
