Project: 91' short wide:GMC front end update with billet grille and all clears, 17x8 & 17x11 Torq Thrust II's5/7 drop, almost totally shaved and 93 Deville tailsFuture Plans: 2001 LQ4 6.0L & a T-56
DD: 98' 5 speed GT : Dumped Exhaust, CAI
Not knowing a dammed thing about what I wanted I just went to the dealer parts guy and told him I wanted the 3 pc engine cover like the 6.0's have. He got me a set and they bolted right up to my 5.3 and looked great. I sanded off the "Vortech" and painted them white to match the truck. You can go to

I can assure you that after HOURS of sanding, several coats of primer and paint that there is NO faint marking of the Vortech!! None! Zilch! NADA! None at all! Not a dammed bit! No freaking way! Guaran-fking-teed Jack!!![]()
What you may be referring to is the "Heartbeat" I put on the cover with pin striping tape.... like on the hood pad.
Thanks for making the link work. I know so very little about puters that it's sometimes very frustrating.... but it sure brings my BIG ego down to size![]()
