Default New LSX Valve covers from GM

Maybe some has seen them before but they are listed as new in the GM Performance catalog. I saw them in the October Issue of CHP that I got today.



# 25534398 with oil filler hole
# 25534399 without filler hole

Looks cool

Looks very nice.

Any idea on prices, there aren't any prices listed on GMP's website.

Edit- found them on SDPC, 103 each.

It deifnitely wouldn't be hard to grind them down.

But, I was thinking if you mask off or put vaseline on the chevrolet letters, painted the valve cover black or whatever color you want, it would look really nice. Kinda like the 572 valve covers.

102 aint bad for valve covers, considering the price of others.

I am aware of that, considering other companies sell theirs for 350-500 bucks.
