I agree! Chevy/GMC has to place the coils there because of the plug location next to the exhaust ports. This is due to pushrods, and 2 valves/cylinder. No DOHC, or 4 valves/cylinder like Ford.

Well some people like covers out of personal necessity. It's fine. Just like neon lights and wings the size of a whales tail.
GoproAtl has plenty of FU $$$ like he said to buy sheet like an engine cover. Wow.... Must be nice to be able to afford something as pricey as that
This thread is comical. But I like it. Entertainment value better than the price of an engine cover.

Looks great!!
Could you please address the following concerns that have been brought up on this thread?
1. Did the added weight negatively affect your MPG?
2. Do you notice that your engine runs hotter thus affecting your power output?
3. Was the financial strain a difficult hurdle?
4. Do you feel that you need to pop the hood more often to justify this mod? Are you compelled to show it off everywhere you go?
5. Do you feel remorse for covering the beautiful coyote engine in its natural state?

2015 sierra I had before this was the same, no engine cover. Lots of guys used the Cadillac engine covers.
