You guys want more pics? If it stops raining later this evening, I'll walk out to my shop and snap some. That's my car on the Thunder web site.
ps - it's a '98

Has anybody here ever mounted to them on the wheel wells cause on the back of my LS1/LS6 book this guy has new valve covers and his coil packs are mounted on each side of the wheel well. How would I do that and would I need longer spark plug wires?

Nothing at all about looking like ****, no harm, though I was just stating that they would work on a 98 cosmetics aside. Don't take the little smileys too serious
As for my heads I switched to 6.0L truck heads, with 99-02 valvecovers, the 98 covers won't look that bad if you painted them, if using a 98 head. My bad for not clearing that up.
Lawman, and Hotrod, I forgot to get that pic today
I got busy with crap around the house. I'll get that pic tomorrow...will be installing my HKS BOV tomorrow too
As for the brackets, the end brackets are aluminum, the type used for edging and siding. It can be found at Home depot or lowes. The cowl bracket looks to be a plated steel(zinc?) also can be found at lowes. The threaded rod, and hollow steel tubing and nylon locking nuts and acorn nuts can be found at a hobby shop or lowes, depot for a small amount. I bet you can make this whole kit for under $30 bucks, but the wires will cost a lil more
Whats up Kyle, don't sweat that guy up there he's touchy about theguy I keed I keed, I joke with you
