I believe you have to extend the brake vacuum hose too.

I extended all the vacuum lines just so I could reroute them to be hidden Better and not all stretched and possibly kinked

Heater hoses, vacuum hoses (just had to change one of them and swap the others to get it to fit), and an aftermarket intake

I got a bit liberal with the trimming because I didn't want to reroute anything or cut around the stock intake tube. I like how it dresses up the intake manifold.

Also got coil pack covers and painted them blue.

Default Covers look great

KPT2 that looks great! I like the way you added the 5.0 emblem on the back side. It kinda mirrors what ford has done with the 2015 Mustang 5.0 cover.The 2015 mustangs and trucks 5.0 have taller runners on intake manifold I believe. So a 2015 mustang engine cover should snap right in place on a 2015 f150 without changing the air intake. Here is a pic of 2015
