Odd that Hellion got a 2018 before the car rags did.

Good for them.

Looks photoshopped to me.

The turbine section is right on the block, it’s very unlikley the custom headers have room to snake and mount there.

I’m calling bullshit, because it is.

Edit: appears to be real. So ford handed an aftermarket a pre production car and not the press. Lol??

I agree, the plumbing seems like it cannot be possible.
And there is something very wrong about that cowl brace.

I like that cover better than the 15-17's... Not saying much as I always remove the covers anyway on all my cars.

This may be a dumb question, but you're saying I'll be able to remove the cover on the '18, if I want, without worrying about any damage?

Yep. It's just a beauty cover, probably offers some sound insulation. Removed them the day they came home on my 13 GT and 15 GT.

GT350's don't have them.

There is a reason for the engine cover, and a reason people won't be removing them -- DI/PI is not pretty...
