Driven Racing Oil’s Break-In Oil Kit BR30 5W-30
Driven Racing Oil developed the original high zinc, petroleum and low detergent break-in oil over twenty years ago. Break in oil is a specialty oil that reduces wear and contaminates when breaking in a new high-performance engine. It provides controlled friction for your piston rings and incredible protection that helps your camshafts break in properly.
Choosing The Right Cam
Cam-speak is a language all its own. Well, maybe not from a linguistic point of view, but it is a specialized dialect of car-guy talk. Although spoken by a good portion of enthusiasts, Cam-speak is really fully understood by only a handful of those same enthusiasts, as it is a very specialized, nuanced dialect. Those who do not speak the lingo can instantly be singled out. Those who are fluent in cam-speak are listened to intently, even when those listening do not fully comprehend whatʼs being said and how to apply it to their particular applications. Few within our ranks are particularly fluent in this highly specialized jargon.

Because Even Modern Muscle Deserves a Better Look
You can bolt all the horsepower in the world under your hood, but if that engine bay looks like a tangle of plastic and wires, it’s still missing something.

Clean Up Your Engine Bay
These covers are built for builders who love the Coyote’s performance but want to add some visual order to all that function. Designed specifically for the third-gen Coyote engine, they deliver a cleaner, more intentional appearance by concealing the busy coil packs and top-end components that usually steal attention from an otherwise killer swap.
Designed to Fit Your Build
Whether you’re running a supercharger, a custom intake, or you’re just a fan of the factory manifold’s shape, these cam covers slip right in to complement your setup. They’re shipped in a matte black finish, ready to install straight out of the box — or scuff and shoot them to match your car’s paint, detail color, or intake theme.
Simple, Stylish, and Functional
This package includes only the valve cover covers, keeping the install simple while letting you handle the look your way. The end result? A Gen 3 Coyote that doesn’t just perform like a modern muscle hero — it looks the part too.
Customization Options
The matte black GEN/3 Coyote Cam Covers are just the starting point — builders can paint, powdercoat, or detail them to match any color scheme or theme. And for those looking for something truly one-of-a-kind, the geniuses at Pyramid Optimized Design can assist with custom options, helping you create a set of cam covers that perfectly complements your swap and your vision.
