Mustang coil covers on 5.0L F150
Bought some Blue boss 302 coil cover for my f150 5.0L.
could not find the ball studs that mount the coil covers to the valve covers so i got some m6x1.00"x25mm mechine screws.three per side total of six.
you can se the three spots where the stud should be.
so i screwed the machine screws into the valve covers.
screwed machine screws till they bottomed out then screwed them out a turn and a half. i then removed the pcv line and oil cap on passenger side. then lined up coil covers with machine screws and then pushed them on. put pcv line back on then repeated for other side its that easy. (had to play with the hight of the screws to get the right fit of the coil covers). if you do this you might want to lightly grease the screws to help the cover install. plus be careful to line up the covers just right if not you'll push the rubbers out of the covers and will need to remove them and try again.
covers installed.
the hardest part of the install was the back screws by the fire wall on ether side. total time 15 min. i still need to adjust the one side and will be lighty greasing the screws so i'll let you know how that goes.

2007 Loaded FX4 ... if not how the heck do you keep the engine bay so clean?
Following this regiment, spiffing-up the engine bay takes very little time and/or effort.
Example - Here's a couple of engine bay pic' of my 2003 Crown Victoria LX Sport with 107,000 miles .....

Don't let it get REALLY dirty. Meaning: The engine bay gets cleaned each time the vehicle is washed.
