Was looking at the explorer intake and looking for everything to swap over to it and saw that there is no bracket thing like on the stock for the 10 pin connectors? How has everyone else here dealt with this problem?

the 10 pin connectors fit in a plastic clip that hooks one lip under the top cover plate that says Explorer or 5.0 HO. The other lip hooks under the bottom edge of the upper manifold. The same clip you currently have on your stock manifold will work on the explorer manifold.

Mine broke some time ago, so the 10 pin connectors just float. Seems to work OK, the clip might prevent some rubbing, but it hasn't been evident yet.

You will have to file a small slot (like the stock intake) for the stock 10-pin clip to fit under the cover, but it's very easy to do.........
