  • For Sale forums (especially the Mustang variety).

Could you do an install write up. Would love to see your solution for the coolant lines. Some people just chop up the cover which doesn't look oem. Your install is on of the cleanest I have seen.

Thanks for the vid my dealer said they would void my cooling system warranty and the one that covers HVAC if I modded the hoses. But the setup is sweet. Did you just use generic hose from advance or auto zone or did you do your own thing. Getting the cover for fathers day.looking to do a custom paint job on it

This link list all the part numbers http://www.f150forum.com/f70/5-0-intake-cover-207718/
I have all my orignal hoses. I can put the original OEM heater hoses back on and the original cold air intake in no more than a hour if I have any major warranty concerns. Thats one reason I used the quick connect type elbows and releaseable plastic ties. But your right, if any problem arises to heating or cooling they would try to blame it on the hoses. Mine will be original if I have any problems before going to the dealer.
