    it does look really good actually!

    But i like the look of the 5.0 efi on its own, also i guess that thing would trap a bit of heat.

    That particular type accualy covers the oil fill cap as well so it can be a hassle for some.

    thats all i was thinking, the heat, but it would make the engine bay alot neater, i dont want to cover the top of the motor as much but it does cover the front of the motor pulleys, etc) and the heads, mine arent polished or anything so it doesnt matter if it gets covered up.

    If there was a sleeker one available i would consider it but for the price this one looks good

    neat neat shiny polished, man you're so gay , the less covers are the better. Just look at how stupid a ecotec looks with the cover on compared to letting the manifold see the world, heaps better!

    yeah thats sweet! its the same design but just doesnt cover the heads.... but for 95 bucks honesty you cant go wrong for what it is... if its made properly etc..

    And greenfoam im going to do a jason shortly and remove my doors, roof, glass, bonnet and boot just to kick your ass down the quarter!

    that looks really good in red, but yeah i wouldn't bother. i already took the bit off that covers the throttle so i can muck around there. i don't have my engine bay for show so it doesn't matter! anyway i think you'd need to fix up your bananas too. doesn't look good with that awesome engine cover and yuck bananas.

    Looks great. I prefer the VT one myself. As others have mentioned they will trap/reflect slowness back into the motor though.

    Digging up an old thread again, haha go search! Can't seem to find any of the engine covers on eBay, I'd like to cover most things up in the engine bay, make it look a tad neater. Anyone have any ideas where to look or who could supply such a cover? Cheers
