    how much power?

    since it's a carb intake, I bet it makes more than the guesses above............their more in line for an EFI intake.

    Metal heater tubes, Explorer vs. Stock 5.0 How different?

    worst case is you will need to remove a little length from the Exporer tubes - I'm running an Explorer set on mine now.

    Are AFR 165 too much for gt40 intake?

    stepping from a 165 to a 185 will often result in better power, even when holding everything else essentially the same. To compensate for the intake, use a different cam with a little more duration/lift.

    BBK SSI INTAKE MANIFOLD

    the turns from the TB to the first plenum are pretty tight for high flow plus the perpendicular interesecting of two plenums with the first being an "cross roads" intersection is less than desireable in my book. If you look in mechanical engineering books on high velocity duct design, this is...

    Are AFR 165 too much for gt40 intake?

    the 351 Lightining lower flows a ton compared to the 5.0 version, but the upper will choke it some on a 351. The intake will flow very close to the peak head flow as-is.

    Finally! A valid TFS-R and TFS Box R intake dyno comparison on a street stroker.

    forgot that due to the 90mm chat I guess, if a 75 is compared to a 75 that takes one variable out of it.

    Finally! A valid TFS-R and TFS Box R intake dyno comparison on a street stroker.

    The R box and Vortec box are the best I have seen. The others don't come close. I have not done testing on them but my customers have. And, has been pointed out, on a 408 using a 75mm long runner upper with s shorter duration cam and then switching to a 90mm box and then saying the box is...

    Finally! A valid TFS-R and TFS Box R intake dyno comparison on a street stroker.

    The test used the same cam, so the box was better for that cam. Change the cam specs to favor a long runner intake and use the long runner upper and you might get a flip flop again.

    gt40 help? intake

    I don't seem to have any trouble at all - about 750 times on Fords so far.

    gt40 help? intake

    I've seen that methodd posted elswhere before - there are other ways of doing it accurately that are not as involved as pinning the gasket. Consider that placement is controlled by the bolt holes, front to back and top to bottom.

    gt40 help? intake

    This is all very unlikely if you use a template that is the same size as the head ports and you use the bolt holes and intake-to-block deck surface to align the template.

    gt40 help? intake

    If you port the stock lower HO intake well, the intake will flow right at the same numbers as the GT40 head and the intake will work well for a street engine. Use a stock Felpro intake gasket (MS93334 I think) set that is very close to the size of the head ports and use it as a template on the...

    explorer tb?

    well hell, then go 90mm it'll go even faster..........

    explorer tb?

    at least get a 94-95 70mm MAF to use with the 65mm which will get the job done for now and it's CHEAP, so is the MAF if you JY it.

    Current Mods - Where to go from here?

    I also advised to go with aftermarket heads/intake/cam. Better long term use of the money. I do have a stock on the outside HO intake that flows 230cfm with excellent balance though - took me 60 hours to get it there. Runners are shortened internally and the cross section increased throughout.

    Ported e6's?

    flow testing one port should cost less than $50, for free heads, that's a small investment. If they were done by a "professional", the chambers should have been addressed as well - easy to see and check.
