Hi all,

I’ve mustang 95 GT automatic transmission and I’ve found a cobra upper and lower intake, I guess from 1999 cobra (see below images).

I wonder is it possible to make swap (does cobra intake fits into 95 GT automatic) - if your answer is yea what I need to buy more?

If the answer is no, if I had a mustang 99 GT manual would be possible to swap?

I also share my engine image :)

No. The 1996+ cobras have a 4.6L modular engine. Nothing will swap over to your OHV 302 engine.



The 99 cobra intake will not fit a 99GT. You need the cobra specific heads and a few more parts to make that all work. Basically, it’s useless in all but a few specific applications.

Thanks for reply #mustang5L5.

I wrote 99 but i really don’t know which year is whom is selling either which year of the mustang have this intake how should we know which year is it?
 
It’s a ‘99 Cobra intake. The part numbers confirm it as well as one of the tags had a date.

2001 cobra intake is the same or similar. Unsure if same part number or slight revision. But basically bolting it to a 99 or 01 cobra would be the correct application.

You need a GT40 family intake for your 302 / 5.0L. The options are a tubular GT40, a '94/'95 Cobra, or an Explorer intake, unless you go aftermarket like Holley or TFS. The tubular GT40 and Cobra intakes are getting pricey.

Keep in mind, the stock strut tower brace won't fit once you switch to a GT40 family intake. You'll have to pickup an aftermarket brace or run without it.

Both the Explorer and tubular GT40 intakes require a throttle adapter unless you convert over to a Foxbody throttle and cable. TFS makes a nice adapter. (I returned two Edelbrock adapters on an engine I built for a friend because the casting and powder coating quality was so poor. This was the first Edelbrock product I've ever had an issue with.)
 
Which year explorer upper and lower is best fit and less job for 1995 gt automatic transmission?

When you say gt40 I assume you meant not ford gt40 (but what is gt40)?

I’ve read some articles but I felt those are for prof not junior as myself:(

Sorry for beginner question but I really love my stang and would like to fix and learn self without depending others. It also gives good feeling fixing own car while listening Black Sabbath, Metallica honestly with little J Daniels :D

I really appreciate you guys sharing your knowledge and makes that’s easier whom live in Europe.


I could not do below images without #stanget

the 94-95 mustang is an external EGR so any of the 96-01 explorer intakes will work fine.

The challenge is you will need to do a fox style throttle body conversion or find the correct sn95 angle adapter for the intake. You may want to Google search this as it’s a popular topic.
