make the LS1 look good

[mat vsII]

hey guys,
well we all know that with the covers off the LS1 is an ugly ugly motor and im looking into making it look a bit nicer. i had the turtle shell on it but thats gone now.

im thinking of the 2 piece 300 KW covers, but im also thinking of having no covers at all and getting coloured billet fuel rails and any other dress up bits.

so can u post up some pics of ur LS1 engine bays.

thanks guys

i wish thats what it looked like under my bonnet.

tp the OP, just use the VZ split enigne covers. i reckon they look good. nice and stock.

[mat vsII]

im still not a big fan of the turtle shell. but am a fan of the turbo

[crew chief]

just noticed you drive a wk, the turbo lives in this, go the wk stato

[mat vsII]

Man that's a sweet ride! Is that turbo fed off both banks or just one? Mines silver with leather and sunroof but still stock for now. It's got hm headers and wet shot of nos tho.

Go the limmos!!

Look for my other ride in the vs section the thred is called bazza the burnout beast. It's a vs turbo.

[crew chief]

What Sort/Colour and how much?

I think the ls1 with no cover and a otr is a mean lean fighting machine.

[Lumps of cheese]

These are the ones i'll be getting, or similar anyway.

im currently doing this now im relocating the coil packs and making new extenions wiring loom for the coils aswell as a few other sensors so the only wires you will see on the engine bay is the wires going to the injectors

Is it hard to make the extensions as i was thinking of doing this as well.
Where are you putting your coils?

dont no havent done it yet im going to use 7 pin trailer wire cable as its the same diameter if not thinker then the stock wire and stager were i cut the wire an solder and use heat shrink to cover the bare wires. Ive mounted on set havent done the other side yet.

Im prety sure places like harrop ect do kits to move coils ect.

Engine bays do look heaps better with them moved imo.

I also like the split covers and the hsv(black) turtle covers, but not a fan of the alloy ones above.

They sure do and ive seen a couple of custom jobs thst look better aswell!

[SIG-054]

Marranos did the coil reloaction on an LS3 they transplanted on a VZ SS, doesnt look that hard to do, just get some cutoms leads made up.
