Description

V Series GM LS Billet Aluminum Valve Covers Black for Sealing, Clearance, and Engine Bay Detail

These GM LS valve covers are built around the details buyers search for most: fitment, valve cover height, material, finish, ventilation, and sealing. The 3 in. profile, center bolt mounting style, and smooth top style help match the cover to the correct engine build and clearance requirements.

Aluminum construction with a black finish improves durability and engine bay appearance while supporting internal baffling for oil control. The gasket and hardware details should be matched to the application so the covers seal correctly and install cleanly.

Use these valve covers for street performance builds, restorations, swaps, and engine dress-up upgrades where appearance, oil control, and valvetrain clearance matter. Verify gasket style, breather/PCV layout, rocker clearance, and hood clearance before installation.

Q&A

What applications are these valve covers compatible with?
These valve covers are designed for GM Gen III/IV LS Series V8 engines, including the 4.8L (LR4, LY2), 5.3L (LM7, L59, L33, LC9, LH6, LY5, LMG), 5.7L (LS1, LS6), 6.0L (LQ4, LQ9, LY6, L76, L96), 6.2L (LS3, L92, L99), and 7.0L (LS7). Verify that your engine uses the standard LS valve cover mounting pattern before ordering.

Will these valve covers fit my engine?
These valve covers are designed for GM Gen III/IV LS engines. Verify that your cylinder heads and valvetrain configuration match the factory LS valve cover mounting pattern for your specific application.

What do valve covers do?
Valve covers seal the top of the cylinder heads to protect the valvetrain from dirt and debris while containing engine oil and helping prevent leaks.

What material are these valve covers made from?
These valve covers are manufactured from aluminum, providing excellent strength, reduced weight, and improved heat dissipation compared to factory stamped steel valve covers.

What finish do these valve covers have?
These valve covers feature a durable black finish that provides corrosion resistance and a clean, performance-oriented appearance.

Are these valve covers baffled?
Yes. These valve covers feature internal baffling to help control oil movement inside the valve cover and reduce the amount of oil reaching the breather or PCV system during engine operation.

Do these valve covers include gaskets?
Yes. Valve cover gaskets, mounting bolts, and a matching oil fill cap are included for installation.

Will these valve covers help prevent oil leaks?
Yes. When installed correctly with the included gaskets on clean sealing surfaces, these valve covers are designed to provide a reliable seal and help prevent oil leaks.

Are these valve covers a good upgrade over stock?
Yes. These aluminum valve covers provide improved durability, oil control, and a premium black finish, making them an excellent upgrade for street performance, racing, engine swaps, and custom LS builds.

Can these valve covers clear aftermarket rocker arms?
These valve covers have an overall height of 3.0 inches with 1.6 inches of internal clearance, providing room for many aftermarket rocker arm combinations. Verify clearance for your specific rocker arms and valvetrain components before installation.

Can these valve covers be used in performance builds?
Yes. These valve covers are ideal for street performance, racing, turbocharged and supercharged applications, engine swaps, and custom LS builds. Their aluminum construction, integrated baffling, included hardware, and generous internal clearance make them well suited for a wide range of performance applications.
