I always just make my own...

Cut the tubes off of the fittings and bolt them back on like stock, but put a flat piece of metal under it to cover the hole.... I use pennies.

Easier than $12 plus shipping for some little plates.

It is easy and can be free, or will cost whatever you decide to use. Penny, quarter, nickel, or any piece of plate scrap. Then bolt it on like stock!

It will be ugly! But it won't cost $12 + shipping and then however long it takes to arrive.

I've had that problem with egr/air plates also...they are too thin so they still have to be rigged up or use shorter bolts!

Waste of money!

I got mine from hawks third gen... mainly cause they had both blockoff plate types, ls6 coolant tubes, and TB bypass stuff all in one place. Plates are plenty thick and they were pretty quick on shipping. WS6store is awesome too.. dunno what their plates are like though.
