Default Coil Covers........

Does anyone know if the stock coil covers off an ls2(ie. Corvette) will fit on our Ls4's?

Maybe it would be better painted to match the car.

I actually just picked up some GTO coil covers off craigslist on saturday for $20.

Now, I understand we dont have a gto or a corvette so why have them? I say why not! Isnt that what they used to do back in the day swap motors an be like Look my car is BA I have a 65 GP with a GTO engine. Right or wrong? IDK...

BUT, I will be taking the GTO off and doing something custom with mine. I have no idea how to use plastic filler or anything so it may take me sometime to get them done an painted. Anyways I think its gonna look BA.

If not, Ill go to SummitRacing and get those coil covers by holley.
