Depending on cost, I'd be very interested.  I think they give the 'utilitarian' and custom look that a lot of us are going for.  Plus Corvette covers are over-rated and over-priced.

IMO radiusing the lower corners would improve the looks.  Other than that I like!

Looks like defense against curious hands! Those look fantastic in your engine bay. There are currently a few sets like this on the market for waaaaaay too much, so keep the costs down and you should have a few people in line.

i thought i had read somewhere that the corvette covers actually cost a hp or two from trapping heat and getting the coils hotter than they get uncovered?

^I know the "turtle shells" that cover the intake and coil packs (common on Holdens) trap enough heat to pull timing. I would be surprised if anybody has done dyno testing with any sort of accuracy, though.

there is plenty of space for the coils to vent. it may be hard to see form the pics but there are spacers under the covers to raise them up. i wanted them to be low profile but not to low to make any issues.

the ends could be rounded also and possibly bead rolled down the center to change the look.

It looks like they only fit aftermarket fuel rails.  Is that correct?

they can be modified to work with any rails. all they would need is a hole for the fuel line to go through. but they do look alot better than stock fuel rails. you can get profesional products rails for about 50 bucks from summit
