Besides carbon fiber, I already have those, any other nice covers for an LS 7.
Thanks.

Kyle Tucker knows them well. I am sure he could hook you up.

Katech... very nice, very functional and they can be customized nicely. Mine don't leak a drop. They also have nice coil pack racks.

How hot does the coil packs get next to the headers? Any problems?
And for the $64,000 question....how much?

Hey guys let me say first that we have been in the middle or getting many new cnc parts out and have been redoing our website and moving so we will be back as a sponsor here on g very soon. Just wanted to get everything in order first. So with that said and keep an eye out for our mag article on our covers but a quick run down. Covers I have now will be 3 inch tall these will retail near if not right at $450, they have a standard 0-ring gasket and can use stock GM bolts or an allen head like in the pics. We are still working on coil relocation options which will be an extra charge of about $100-$120. I am working on options such as anodizing, powdercoating and polishing extra charge of $50-$100. The coils mounted on the sides are one option we are looking at doing the way we set the ones up on our camaro should not have an problems with heat from the headers. The plug wires have heat gaurds and the harness is tucked nicely away from the headers. We are also going to be making a 1/12 inch cover and 2 or 2 1/2 cover. But for awhile only the 3 inch will be on shelves. The shorter covers will be cheaper price not set yet.
Glad you guy like them.
