so if i get a pre 97 intake all i have to do i tap out the boss... and im good?
so basically i shouldnt even mess with the 97 and above stuff...

Right, unless you want to get rid of your EGR and relocate your ACT sensor.

My Explorer intake was already drilled and tapped for the ACT, and I don't know who did it, because I got it from ebay, so maybe some already had the provisions for an ACT sensor (?) I don't know, but the pre-97 intakes are your best bet.

ok so 'the pre 97 have a boss for act and the egr.....thats great!!
but will having a boss for the egr guarentee a boss for the ACT???
and is a boss" pretty much a platform/flat surface to drill on, or is like a pre dented hole??
