Great to see these back. I get PMs all the time asking about these. And even at $200 they are well worth it.

Here are some pics:

BTW the 6.0 overlays are from Grafxworks.com

Finally! Is this going to be a limited time production run or did they finally find another company to fully manufacture them?

Once the TA is done, this is going to be a top of the list mod, which is why I'm asking.

[Crazy Paul]

I don't know how many they made or if it was a 1 off production run.
I'll try to find out.

Price hike or not, I've wanted these for a while and just sent payment (albeit with a wrong deal number, but regardless...PM'd). Thanks Paul;)

Paul,

Way to go with keeping up with this, and making this big announcement. There sure were a lot of people waiting for these!!

I have loved mine since I installed them... they look so much better than the stock G8 cover ...

Ebay is where I got mine too. But mine is chrome and has a Mobil 1 sticker on it.

[Eric_GT]

I almost forgot...do I need to get a mounting kit for these? I believe I do and several peopl have used Pace Performance. Is this correct?

WoW that was fast. Less than 7 days. You're very welcome.
:woohoo:

[dline]

Still some in stock?

[Crazy Paul]

Still some in stock?

Yes plenty.

I'll post up in this thread if the stock level of Engine Covers becomes a problem.

[GWNG8]

CP, do the covers come with rubber retainers?

[DarkPhoenix]

Yes, the set I bought from him did. The only thing I had to get were the studs that screw into the valve covers.

[Crazy Paul]

Yes they always come with 2 rubber retainers under each side.

[GWNG8]

Can these be installed WITHOUT removing the foam under the plenum?

[BluYa76]

Can these be installed WITHOUT removing the foam under the plenum?

Yes and no. I did install them but I had to spend time cutting and shaving down the humps or cutouts in the plastic for them to fit right. Not hard, just take your time, have a dremel handy, and some sand paper. I then painted mine and applied graphic overlays on the "6.0 liter". I've pics of them installed some where on here. Unfortunately I lost my copies when my laptop crapped out.

The 2 piece 6.0 engine covers were made to suit the original L76 intake manifold which does not have the extra foam and beauty cover on top that your LS3 intake manifold has.
If you do not remove the LS3 intakes foam and cover then the 2 piece engine covers will touch the LS3 intake cover in places as marked with red dots below.

If the 2 piece engine covers are touching at the red dots then they will not allow the clips underneath each cover to sit down far enough to secure onto your fuel rails.
Choice.....remove beauty noise cover off LS3 intake or trim the scalloped sections on each 6.0 engine cover to re-gain clearance.
