Anyone done this before on here? :SNSign: I may have to install a GT40 intake on a 95 but I'm wondering if there's enough room? I'm not 100% sure if I will help out this fellow because he's a real scrotumlicker but I'm curious now. If it fits no problem, why did Ford use the intake setup from the Thunderbird for then?

should fit without any issues at all. i run a trick flow track heat with a 3/8 spacer, but i had to take off my hood blanket. i dont know why ford put the t-bird intake on them when the fox intakes would have. the only reason i can think of is the strut brace ford put on them from the factory.

I did the fox TB conversion with the 93 cobra intake which is taller than the GT40 intake and the TB PCV air tube only rubbed the hood blanket...no real problems.
