Hi There

Can any one help? I have a 2005 LS2 from a monaro. I sent my valve covers to be metal polished and the guys messed them up completely. To buy a new polished set there seems to be some options available online but trying to find which will defiantly fit a standard engine. Any suggestions? Would the Holley set be a straight swap?

Any help would be much appreciated.

They will certainly bolt to your engine no problem, and your coils will bolt directly to the towers instead of using the normal metal brackets.

So you might need to enquire with Holley or whoever you buy from if there are different covers to fit different coils, as some do have slightly different post spacing.

Not sure if they replicate all the OEM breather pipes...or if you're worried about that

I had a set of those and they fit nicely to a LS2 Monaro.
However I end up selling them off as the passenger side breather baffling was terrible. Not an issue if NA and on the standard PCV setup however as it doesn't utilise the breather ports on that side.

There's quite a bit of stuff for these motors which have a defiant fit. wink

(GSD2000 might have a spare set PM him)
