Default cobra intake install

Hello, a50autry!

We've noticed that you've not been active on All Ford Mustang Forums for quite
some time now, and we miss you!

Could we not tempt you back?

i have asked question and got no descent response. i don't want to sound like a butt, but where i work i have no time chatting or anything like that. when i get home it is basiclly time for bed. if you knew you would understand. what i
have (not much) is a 1990 EFI 302 - 35 bored over; forged flat top racing pistons; 3 angle valve on stock heads;75 mass air, throtlle body w/ stock upper intake bored to 75 to match induction. BBK cold air induction w/cone filter; E-303 cam; BBK equal length headers; X-Pipe w/ flowmasters; stock polished stainless steel LX pipes. I have purchased a used Cobra upper and lower intake manifold with barely any hardware and i could use some instructions/diagrams and tips to install. i have been building 5.0 mustangs (gutting bodys out and restoring it with a 5.0 package)for several years and have some knowledge. don't know a lot of the performance part and could use some help on my personal one. it'll be the 5th personal that i am rebuilding
Thanks for all of your help

I installed Trick Flow intakes on my car awhile back ago and it is a fairly easy process, easier if the motor is out of the car. Most of the hardware and gaskets are available at your local parts stores, however I choose to order my parts from Summit just because it's simple to return things if something is damaged and such. I don't know what hardware you're missing or what all you need, so I'll post links to everything you'll need.

Intake bolts
ARP 154-2001 - ARP Chromemoly Intake Manifold Bolt Kits - summitracing.com

Water neck gasket
Fel-Pro 35067 - Fel-Pro Water Neck Gaskets - summitracing.com

EGR gasket (if you're even running EGR)
Ford Racing M-9464-A50 - Ford Racing EGR Gaskets - summitracing.com

Felpro intake gaskets
Fel-Pro Performance 1250 - Fel-Pro Performance Intake Manifold Gasket Sets - summitracing.com

As far as details or instructions on how to install the intakes, it's pretty self explanatory. Most of the gaskets come with instructions on how to install them, you may need a tube of black silicone or "gasket maker". I know on mine, I used a 1/4" bead of silicone "gasket maker" on the front and rear of my intakes where they meet the block instead of the actual gaskets. Some people have said running high rpms or excessive block pressure will blow out the gaskets so they've found the silicone holds up better. I've not had any problems either way. Hope this helps, good luck!
