Engine cover.

Is there an engine cover that will fit a 5.3 with LS6 intake and truck coils that looks like a corvette one but doesn't say corvette.

Factory there's GTO but those say GTO. CTS-V but those have a Cadillac emblem. Perhaps a Chevy SS(the 6.2 car) might have something that would suit you and either fit or be close enough to be massaged. I suspect it would have "SS" or similar and be set up for a car intake(though LS3 but there is less difference between that and a truck style cover).

Look on eBay and there are a few folks that make some decent looking stainless or stainless-like cover setups. Probably more out there as well but hasn't really been a focus of mine thus far in my projects. I like things to look slower than they are.

If I'm not mistaken you can get the corvette covers on eBay that has been filled in and smoothed off.

I had a quick look there. Will check again. But will they fit over truck coils?

just search "smooth ls engine covers" there is a guy from Australia selling them.

unsure on the truck coil question but i would think they could be made to fit if not
