DIY 18' manifold swap into 15-17'

[WildHorse]

Decided to clean up the vacuum lines a bit. Here you can see I used the former IMRC vacuum port that goes through the intake manifold as the new spot for the brake booster vacuum source.

Also flipped the aspirator left to right to make the install cleaner.

Thank you so much @S550MG for this. I have a 2017 Ford F150 lariat FX4 5.0 that the intake manifold IMRC’s went out at 62K miles and the dealer told me it would take 3 months to order a new OEM manifold due to supply chain issues. So after a little bit of research I decided to upgrade to an ‘18 Mustang GT intake manifold.
For the most part it was easy plug-and-play, however there wasn’t a place for the evap valve to fit and I could not find any videos on YouTube or any information anywhere until I found your extremely well documented and detailed post about swapping these manifolds. Thank you so much ! You saved me so much headache, time and money.

Can anyone provide me with the part number for the two foam insulation that goes under the manifolds of 18+ cars. Been searching the web but all I found is the number of the the two foams shield that cover the fuel rails.
