It looks like a stock intake.
Whatever it is it sees to be on back wards.

the non ho's had the intake flipped that way. I wouldnt get to worked up over it, infact I would probably pass on it.

Yes, thats a non HO motor.

Seems I have one in a Grand Marquis, and the intake/heads are worst than HO.

If that tells you anything.

Explorers use DIS, and since that has a cap and rotor it's def not an exploder motor.


It's a non-HO 5.0 from the looks of it

It should make SOME difference, but porting is always a good thing, and helps the parts work together more effectively (thus, a more noticable improvement). Maybe find some spare E7's and have 'em ported, first, and then throw everything on there all at once...?
