Looking for an intake manifold for my 5.0… I pretty much narrowed it down to the cobra, but I think id look into any aftermarket one. Must have both upper and lower manifolds.

i saw you drive down Mineral Springs today as i was leaving the trails. car looks great but sounds like it needs a tune up.

What led you to a Cobra? That intake is 15 years old…there’s much better manifolds out there.

I dont want to spend a load of money. The cobra is from what I heard, good and reliable.

This guy at my school was calling it Cobra R. Ever since then, I suppose it just stuck.

early gen explorer v8’s had the same intake as the cobra on them so all you have to do is find a explorer from a junkyard its what and did and intake worked great for me.

that’ll work…without looking at a picture i do know that the Explorer’s intake tube comes in from the front and the Mustang is from the side. not sure if changing the EGR spacer and throttle body on the Explorer intake would solve that or not. I’d honestly just buy the Ford Racing one, you may even be able to find an original Cobra one for less than the new Ford Racing reproduction…they’re out there. i have an original Cobra one.
