Default coil cover question

once i am done with my conversion (lq4 in an "A" body) i wanted to use the corvette coil covers-are the lq4 v/c's diff. from corvette v/c's as far as mounting the coil covers-not sure how the coil covers mount, wether its from the v/c studs or on the coil brackets-thanks

They mount to studs on the intake manifold and to the fuel rail itself. As long as you have the car intake, you should be ok.

Correct me if I'm wrong.. but the pointed studs are on the Coil Brackets for a Corvette and are also mounted on the F-Body brackets, even thou that are not a option to have the covers. ?!?.

Yes, the F-Bodyengines have the studs for the covers.


Here are my covers from Holden, looks better than the Corvette and covers more.

They are from GM Holden, bought them on eBay from a guy in Australia. He have adds now and then selling them. I think they cost about $100 Australian. If you have seen the ones on the GTO they look the same except the text.
