I know some people on here have used the intake tubing off a 4.6 but for some reason I am having no luck. I just purchased the whole intake tube assembly (with mass air) for $.99 on ebay. I open the box and it has an oval throttle opening. Isnt this Cobra? I was under the assumption that 4.6 sohc was round. Maybe I got the wrong part. What have you guys done? I wouldnt mind getting a custom pipe bent at the exhaust shop but will need something to drive it there.

ya i think the gt's have the round tb opening and cobras have the oval.

what i did was make my own. i went to a local truck shop where they had madrel bent pipes. i cut it at an angle and threw on a rubber coupler.

you can try local muffler shops to see if they can bend you one.

If you look on Ebay you can find intake pipes for ~$15-20 for a Fox. I just ordered one last week.

I went with some 3" pvc tubing. Works for me.

Thanks for the information guys. I thought about the one on ebay but going the 96 or newer because the fenderwall opening is different on the fox's.

Actually Jake the worst chit happened to me lately. Dyno day was yesterday. On Wednesday I went to some car show and I notice something weird with the drivetrain. Something I never experienced before. Turns out it's my clutch that is slipping BIG time. Started just like that. Some guy hoped for a ride with me and said he never seen a clutch slipped like that before. In any gear, any speed, and rpm, if I put a MINIMUM load you just see the rpm's jump. SUCKS

So there was no way I could dyno yesterday. I would of wasted my money. Instead my buddy took my place with his 92 notch with a 364ci stroker (302 stroker) N/A. It was only a 3pull package I had planed so he could not tune his car yesterday. Just took it out after 1.5 year of working on it. With 14* of timing and 40pds of fuel he made 391rwhp and 398rwtq on a Mustang Dyno. He gets his tune at the end of the month and I'm positive he'll get 425rwhp out of it. Some badass coupe. Appraised at 32 500$ CAN ( 26 200$ US).
