Here's a couple numbers:
12559261 Fuel rail covers Covette LH "Dual fuelrail slots"
12556455 Fuel rail covers Covette RH "Dual fuelrail slots"

12564257 LS6 Fuel Rail Cover
12564258 LS6 Fuel Rail Cover

Hopefully someone will chime in that has purchased these...

I'm also looking into getting these. I want the regular Vette ones that are black w/ red lettering. How do you what's what as far as 01's and 02's and such? I see that Fred Beans is offering them, but they offer different ones for different years...

From what I've heard, the 97-98 FRC's have two slots for fuel/EVAP lines on LH cover, 99 up just have one hole. I bought ones for an 01 Z06 (w/one slot) and had to do alot of cutting to make them fit properly, but they still look pretty sweet. They're the red ones with black "Corvette". I also blackened the "5.7L" and stripes at the bottom with permanent marker (many coats). It worked well and has stayed on so far (a few months).

I think these are the ones you'll want. Just look at your fuel lines on the drivers side over the valve cover area.
If there are two lines marked with a fuel tag, & wrapped with the silver insulation tape, then these are the ones you'll want to start with.

I have a 2001 LS1 car, & that's what I used.
Little trimming on the back end of the passenger side.
Little hole for the dipstick tube on the passenger side.
Small notch/slot for the throttle link bracket on the passenger side.
Little trimming on the back of the drivers side.
Little trimming in the fuel line slots to ease the installation around the fuel lines.

You may, or may NOT, need all the same trim cuts. Most applications all have their own little quirks.

But you can do it yourself with a Dremel tool, or a jigsaw, & some sand paper to clean up the edges.

Good Luck!

(Do a search to find more info.)

Thanks for the help guys, just ordered those from GMPartsDirect. Has anybody had any trouble with taking the foil off of the fuel lines? I think it would look much nicer with it off..

You could probably remove the insulation but I don't see why you'd want to. As well as being somewhat of a fire hazard if they got too warm, you'd decrease performance as well due to the warmer fuel.
