i just got this ported stock upper and lower intake for 5.0 from this guy who says it was professionally ported a few years back before they had aftermarket intakes. The upper intake has been cut on the opposite end of the throttle body so that the porter could get inside there to take some material off and then it was rewelded back on. The lower intake has been professionally ported by somebody. He says i'll probably get about 20 horses out of it and also said he felt a difference when he first put it on. Should I stick with it or buy an aftermarket intake?
You said you already had it, so put it on and try it - all it'll cost is a $15 gasket set and I'm bettin you're gonna really be surprised.

if the connectors are different, perhaps all you have to do is get the plugs for them, then rewire them. however, if they're too tall or something, then I can see some problems.
