Those are made by Katech, they are carbon fiber and cost about $1,200 each. You can get the cast aluminum type for about $450 total, but that's without a logo, a logo costs about $400.

LOL, it would be cold day in hell when I spend 400.00 on valvecovers,
let alone 1200.00 each.

THEY ARE VALVECOVERS. lol

"Katech designed and manufactured a cast aluminum valve cover for the LS1 and LS6 engines."

They want $450 for freaking cast aluminum????
If they were machined 7075 T6 I could understand but cast?
