just a bit of info - a properly ported 5.0 HO intake will flow 190-200cfm which is the same as a GT40 head flows stock, so running a ported stock HO intake on those heads does not compromise power to any significant degree.

What's a stock and "properly ported" Explorer/Cobra/GT40 intake making for flow numbers by comparison Tom?

Thanks for the comments. I bought these for a good deal and sold them for even more so I no longer have them. There are other things I want to work on for the fox first before I crack the motor open. While I don't mind collecting parts for a later install the cash was there for me.
