Never saw a bright red engine cover offered, only edge. Doesn't show on build and price either.

Marc,
there is NO torch red engine cover.......it's a darker red....... I'm ordering a very similar car to you, 3LT torch red with the two toned seats in Adrenaline Red..... So yes, HU2 and TU7.
Since there is NO torch red engine cover, I am going with the stock one and I will fill in paint the embossed Corvette lettering on top in Torch Red myself.

Should be pretty straight-forward to pop the cover off and paint it yourself.

He posted a pic of the Edge red for some reason, maybe to show that was what is available. The valve covers are Edge red and so Torch next to them might not look so great.

Not really, I'm in the same what to do boat as I'm getting adrenaline red interior, bright red calipers and would like a bright red engine cover IF it had bright red valve covers (which it doesn't). I'm just going to wait and get the car first.

so the HU2 and TU7 adrenaline red makes the inside and most of the actual seat Black correct ??
With outside of seat red right ?? YES...... the bottom part of the seat and backrest is black, bolsters are RED. Headrest are also black.
for engine cover what are u going to do to make it red and match the torch red ? Edge red will not look right ?!

Talked to my neighbor who is a manager of a body shop. He looked at the engine cover pic and thinks the corvette emblem will come off. If not they can masked it off. He will find the paint code for the edge red. the cost will be 80 to110 to paint it. Cheaper then $495

The only two optional engine covers are Edge Red (dark burgundyish) and Sterling Silver.
I was disappointed to learn the valve covers are edge red too and not bright red.
