Well I know there are a good amount of threads asking how to fit FRC's on F bodies, but I noticed none of them were the red ls6 ones. Has anyone really done it? I recently got my hands on some, and I REALLY want these on my camaro.
I know id have to cut a hole for the dipstick and notch a corner for the cable throttle body, but what else have you guys done??

There are ones with 2 cut outs for fuel lines, and some with 1 cutout for fuel lines. Most always say to get the FRC's with 2 cutouts, but ls6 ones only have one. So I just wanted to know if it was NEEDED... Or prefered to fitment.
I just got these in tonight and havnt been able to open the hood and test them out yet

I swapped in a crate LS6 longblock over 10 years ago and added the red LS6 FRC's....still have them on too, only now with a FAST 92mm intake. The passenger side I had to cut a notch for the TB cables and a hole for the dip stick, on the driver side, I traced the patten for the first fuel line slot onto a piece of paper and then transfered the pattern to where I wanted the 2nd fuel line slot and use a dremel to cut it out. Looks factory too unless you pull out a magnifying glass...

That is definitely an option, one which I probably didn't feel confident about until your reply. Did you use the multipurpose cutting bit (drill bit shaped) and/or cutting wheel?
Still hoping to hear tips on fitting the return hose under the cover.
Since posting, I removed the heat tape and tried bending the return hose to fit under and it does not seem like there is enough play and the green cap sits up too high.
I also saw a post about extending the return hose, but no details were provided. I assume the intent was to splice a new section of hose, which seems undesirable (this is just an appearance mod after all).
