So My truck just passed smog for the first time since I've had it

. I'm thinking I won't have to smog it for another 2 years and I just can't stand the air cleaner or the valve covers and was hoping to swap them out. How do I do this with out screwing anything up? I've got a pipe that goes from my valve cover to my air cleaner that would need to be remover and a few other hoses that go to the air cleaner. Let me know please and thank you.
