Thanks @Voo Doo :thumbsup:
Ahh gotcha..you meant you "finished it off with a 2014 VALVE Cover"
Sorry, I thought you meant the Engine Cover

Okay - I need some help cleaning up this engine bay...looks like Medusa had sex with an Octopus in there!
How the heck do you move all this stuff around so the 2015-2017 valve covers will fit?!

Some pics below...not sure what to do with the DI pump and Injector #3 I believe..it looks like it's sticking up alot.
How did you guys with 3rd Gen Coyotes (18-19 GT) get around this? @Elvis66 I love how you did the orange valve covers...what's the secret, am I missing something?

Appreciate the help!

Crap...okay yeah I was confused. That was on the 2015 model.
So the 2019 you can't fit the valve covers?

I think the engine cover also helps protection the hood from heat.. aka. paint protection, instead of it heating a hot spot in middle of hood.

Don't want to cross-post this too many times but here is what I did (minimal effort and cost):

Think that looks great!
Gonna chop mine up and do something similar, but i want to add coil covers to give it a cleaner look.

I've seen engine coil covers from a 2015 model fitted on a 2018. See photos of @Elvis66 2018 GT.

I reached out to him and I'm sure he'll chime in, but I really would like to do this.

Anyone else do this on a 2018?

Yes everything fits perfect and no modification to the engine at all.
