Default Does the 97-98 Corvette Fuel cover direct fit?

Just curious if the 97-98 Corvette Fuel covers are a direct fit to the camaro and firebird LS1? I see that they have the dual fuel lines in those fuel covers.

Anyway information would be great. Thanks

You'll still have to cut them in some places, but at least you won't have to cut that extra slot tho. Not a "direct" fit, but a "better" one to start out with.

Welcome a'board' newbie!

Search function up there on your right is your friend. You'll find a ton of information on this site. Search "frc's", or "fuel rail covers". (FRC's may bring you some 'Fixed Roof Coupe' Corvette information.)

And just like Chad had written above, that is a true statement, ..., They won't just slip in to place as they are. Modifications must be made. Either to the car, or the covers. 98% of the people make the modification to the covers.

But if yer gonna do it, the 97-98 covers, #12556455 & #12559261, are the ones to start with. Just start looking at all the photos available & start cutting, little by little, until you're satisfied. There are also a couple minor things to do tho the engine compartment to make things easier also. Like removal of the throttle cable bracket off the rear driver's side of the intake manifold, removal of the wire bundles off the fuel rail, etc., etc., ...

Good Luck
