Fabricated LS Valve Covers Without the Fabricated Price

There are a lot of benefits to using a fabricated aluminum valve cover on your LS engine. The stock cast LS1 valve covers are certainly not the most elegant looking pieces, but more importantly they were designed to maximize packaging space due to the constraints of modern, cramped engine bays full of other necessary equipment. This compact design means the stock LS valve covers leave little room for high performance valvetrain upgrades. The clean “ready to race” look is one only a fabricated valve cover can provide, and it wasn’t too long ago that you literally had to cut and weld your own fabricated valve covers for that valvetrain clearance.

Today, thanks to modern machinery a fabricated valve cover for your LS swap can be made economically using CNC machines, laser cutting tables, and press benders/rollers for the pieces to be welded by hand, greatly knocking down the fabrication time and cost. These light weight 6061-T6 aluminum fabricated LSX valve covers for Gen3, and Gen4 LS engines fit all popular LS engines, making them perfect replacements for your stock LS1 valve covers or LS3 valve covers. They are just the ticket for that race ready look to clean up your engine bay and make your LS engine swap stand out from the crowd.

To further enhance your LS engine swap’s appearance, we’ve created these LS engine fabricated LSX valve covers without the standard LS coil-near-plug mounting standoffs the stock LS valve covers have. This makes these valve covers a focal point of your engine bay. Simply use a LS remote coil mounting solution to mount your coils along with a cut-to-fit LS engine spark plug wire kit to get your spark to the plugs. Lastly, they've also been designed with a unique O-ring sealing gasket for a guaranteed seal with the cylinder head. Clean up your LS swap with our fabricated aluminum LS valve covers today!
