Holley has launched a new two-piece valve cover design for Gen V GM LT engines that allows for the concealment of ignition coils. The new kits are designed to improve engine bay aesthetics while accommodating both early- and late-style coil packs.
Why it matters
These valve covers help vehicle owners customize the look of their engine bays by tucking away unsightly ignition components. They provide a streamlined appearance while maintaining compatibility with factory gaskets and aftermarket coils.
The new valve covers feature a two-piece design to conceal ignition coils, a change from standard single-piece configurations. While the kit includes a billet oil-fill cap and mounting hardware, pricing remains to be determined.

The Home Front
This release reflects the ongoing trend of performance manufacturers providing aesthetic upgrades for the Gen V GM LT engine platform. It follows a shift toward modular engine dress-up components that allow owners to conceal factory ignition hardware for a cleaner look.
If you are planning an engine bay refresh, check the coil pack style on your Gen V GM LT engine to ensure compatibility with these new two-piece covers. Consult a licensed mechanic to perform the installation, as replacing valve covers involves moving ignition and fuel system components.
The takeaway
These valve covers offer a practical solution for owners who want to upgrade the visual appeal of their engine bay while maintaining coil compatibility. Keep your vehicle's service manual handy to verify your specific coil pack configuration before starting any engine modifications.
