LT1 valve cover options/ availability?
Hey everyone, LT1_PWRD here. New kid on the block! I just picked up my 2016 1SS Camaro last week, and I'm already dying to start messing with it. I will be purchasing the MSD intake manifold, headers, CAI, and having it tuned soon. My plan is to have the lettering on the intake manifold smoothed and run with no cover. Any valve cover options? Searched all over Google for the vette/ Camaro LT1, and all I find is the older stuff. Looked in here and couldn't find anything either. Anyone know of a company making/ planning to make a more "eye pleasing valve cover"? Not going for full show car/ chromed out, I just like the bare look, but would like something to catch the eye. Any info on this would be great! Thanks!

I think the problem for aftermarket companies will be to make a valve cover that is compatible with the factory air/oil separator plumbing. Under the factory covers are some unique baffles and chambers that help make all that stuff work.

What about the Katech coil relocation kit for the LT1?

Wow! I do like that. May go use some favors at my Chevrolet dealership to pick up a spare set of oem ones to have painted along with the intake manifold. For sure adding this to the wish list though!

Do they just have engine covers, or will they fab an actual valve cover? Just my opinion, but I'm not a huge fan of the covers. Have seen plenty of nicely done painted ones, but not a fan of all that plastic covering up that beast beneath.
