One of the better features of our Pontiacs has been being able to run plug wires over our covers or next to them without much worry about frying them. The BB mopar SBC and even Ford and BBC are not quite as wire friendly .
Placing turbos or piping in the vicinity of spark wires isnt wire friendly.
But coil per cylinder with covers like this might just allow closer "over the covers" placement of turbos or piping that would otherwise be too risky without them.
And the covers look good!
Fishin' I hear you on booster clearance my old 68 'bird and big booster were not friendly for taller than stock covers... I went to manual brakes like my wifes 69 bird... they arent that much more effort and no difference in stopping power. I'm gettin close to mock up on my 90 'bird the booster is smaller than my 68 was and seems further outboard... It might not be an issue for taller covers. The HVAC might be another story but seein mine is crunched I can lose it for somethin like the vintage air hot rod stuff. (or fab somethin else)
I like your M/T VC coil cover idea...plenty of mount surface for coils and covers... Have a set of Holley covers polished n powder coated... but not real fond of free advertisin for Holley... Coils can hide the ad and maybe some early M/t's over the coils?
