Default Will 98 valve covers fit ls6 heads

I know 98 valve covers are differant from other years but I wasn't sure if it was just the coil mounts or not. Anyhow will 98 valve covers fit on ls6 heads?

Nope. 97-98s bolt from the sides and 99+ are center bolt.

no, LS6 are 99+ style heads, and will not fit the center bolt pattern heads (5.3, 5.7 (99+), and 6.0)

When you upgrade heads, are you willing to sell your 98 covers? im looking for a set to powdercoat.

Yes slow I'd be willing to sell them. Any plans to get rid of a set of those PSJ? What do I do with my coil packs now? Maybe this is the time to relocate them.
