I have a LT4 383 94 Z with composite valve covers and want to put some black plastic fuel rail covers off a vette on it. What needs to be cut and does it come out decent? pics would be great
Thanks

I bought a set for my '96 Formula and had to hack a ton off just to get them to fit. I also have an auto with traction control and all the stock components and wiring. It looked like **** so I tossed them.
Good luck. I really wish they looked good in my engine bay.

Mine's a '93 engine and I used #10224936 (92-93)on the right, #10208794 (94+)on the left along with (4) 10108672 studs. All I had to do was cut a notch , (half nickel) for a wire harness on the pass. side front. They fit right on.

I got mine to fit fine. yes, I had to trim some but if you go slow, they will be clean looking once you are done. you will trim more on the drivers side because the vettes fuel lines route different than ours. The passenger side is a minor trim to clear the hose going from the valve cover to the T.B.
I can post some photos tommorrow of my covers, right now it is -4 and I don't dare go outside

I have them on my new LT1.
The right cover is very easy, just make a notch for the rubber hose attached to the valve cover.
The left cover is a PITA, You have to do a lot of trimming on the rear of the cover to allow it to fit over the f-body fuel pressure regulator. I did a lot of minor trial and error trimming so I did not just whack off the rear portion of the cover.
I made the mounting studs out of bolts with the heads cut off and a little bit of Dremeling.
