I was going to ask you in your other thread where you were planning to relocate your coils to since the LSX valve covers don't have provisions for them. I didn't know if the Katech relocation brackets would work or not.

Reach out to Nickey Chicago as they do it all the time.

Have you looked to see how much space is back there between the heads and firewall on the 5th gen? My guess is that setup wouldn't work on our cars, but I'm sure someone is going to disagree now that I've stated it.

I'm pretty sure that Billet Specialties makes coild covers that actually hides the coils and gives the look of anold school valve cover.

are they cover for the coils or do they relocate the coils?

They cover the coils up completely, and it give the engine the nice clean look of the old style engines. It looks like it has aluminum valve covers, but it is actually hiding the coild between the actual valve cover and the billet specialties cover.

I make these Billet covers and just leave the coils on top where they are designed to be. It is a HOT look IMO. A couple hours to install and your good to go!
