Where do you buy the fuel rail covers/coil covers that resemble the Corvette covers?

I think RotoFab sells them. They are nice, but I think they're too big...and they're pricey!

Thanks for the info!

Nathan or one of you who've removed these items... are the stock LS3 pulleys aluminum or steel? And are the stock coil pack mounting plates aluminum or steel?

Can't speak for the pulleys, but the stock coil pack plates are steel.

Still waiting for the proofs, but they should look like this, except it's going to say "camaro" on them, with bowties in black.

These are the same guys I bought my coil relocation brackets.

Doc, replacing the factory tensioner pulley with a billet unit from Katech will definitely drop some poundage! The factory unit is at least three times the weight. I need to go get myself a good weight scale to "Doc" (no punt intended) this stuff.

You can mount the coils directly to the valve covers and get rid of the bracket along with the unnecessary added weight.

And yes, all the pulley are steel. so swapping the for aluminum would definitely help you reach the goal of 3,600. When I get my new power steering steering pump form Turn One, I post pics with the new aluminum pulley it comes with.

Like so....

Yes they are. Here the same concept but mounted straight up and down instead of an angle.

As a recent "graduate" of this thread, I wanted to post a couple more more photos...

FBodFather...

A friend in the club is working on getting me a signature on my car from Brian Johnson (lead singer of AC/DC) this fall. My car's name is "Black Ice" named from the song by AC/DC. His signature will go on the front of the supercharger. I also want one more signature...Al's.

Here is one more from the engine bay...hey...how did that piece of wood get in there?!?
