Does this cover have any function? My truck didn't have one when I bought it. Seems to be for looks only but thought I would ask.

 

Now you have an excuse to purchase one of these

And yes I think the stock one is just for looks. But the one in the link above is also for staring at and earning cool points.

 

Looks nice, however, my funds must go to performance/running enhancements before I go with the 'dress up'. My next target is the hpx line.

 

I removed mine and it's sitting on the bench at work.

 

There is no real function to the cover. Mainly just to dress up the engine. I have one of the SS covers that Orezona pointed out, but it's an older style that I'm going to have to modify a little bit to clear my external regulator on my fuel system. The newer ones already have the part cut off (closest to the firewall) that allows for the regulated install. Here's what I have now:


Here's how the new ones look:

 

Nice!

 

I agree Heat...u did a real nice job on that cover.

It is a very nice piece. Although, I don't undestand why mine didn't come with the "7.3L" cut into it.

 

will this cover first a 1999 f350? Mine broke and can't find another one.
