So I am at a loss as to which intake cover/coil cover route to go? I don't care for the little plastic stock "vortec" plastic intake cover that came with my Engine. I do like some of the Corvette plastic and Escalade 3 piece kits but are they compatible with the truck manifold? motor is 2005 Silverado 5.3.
Accessory brackets have been changed to include a narrower footprint for my narro engine compartment. This looks like it could be an issue for some of the 3 piece GM covers that I have seen.

What are my options?
Thoughts?
