I have the 2 sets and I also had to take the upper intake off as they were wedged behind the it.
3 questions,
can I remove the extra set ?
dont they attach anywhere as opposed to just laying behind the intake ?
can I get away with using the upper intake gasket over again ?
I have read that the extra set was due to a ford recall from back in the day. something about there not being enough slack causing the pins to lose continuity.

its not an extra "set", its just an extension, which didnt really solve the pin connection problems that they were added to fix. theres a good bit of info in the surging idle thread (iirc, i know its around here somewhere) about making sure they connect up right, and how to tweak them if youre having issues.
and like said above, theres a kind of bracket on the stock upper they attach too, but they can just tuck back behind the intake with no real problems.
