Default Windstar Intake Swap Questions? Look Here

Ok guys, I got it up, I just did this swap on my 01, using a stock hood with a GT hood scoop. If you have any issues opening this, let me know.

Thanks to Tom (shinerstang) for helping out a bunch.

There should be a few more files to view when you click the link. The doc file is Word 97-03, and the docx is Word 2007. The wps files are for word proccesor (which sucks!).

Jesse, Too much of a PITA because it makes you log in. Can't you type it in the thread or cut and paste it along with pics?

Very detailed write up, it should help out a lot of guys who want to dot the swap and it really did not leave anything out that I saw.

The low and mid-range power feels about the same, but it does seem to have an extra usable 5-600 rpm on the top though. I think a tune will really bring out the potential of this set-up. I'm trying to get it set with a tune, if I get numbers I will post them up, but I feel that may be a couple months from now.

BTW, I would have done this swap just for the looks of the intake alone, lol, the factory cast one is ugly.

I plan on doing it just for the weight lost off the front end. Getting as much weight off the front end as possible helps settle the weight around on the car for handling purposes.

Great job on the mod, I just don't see where it would really give any real benefit other than weight loss. I am not calling you out or anything silly like that, I am just not seeing how you'd get much more usable airflow with one over the stocker.

No matter how I feel about the swap, you did an excellent job writing up this guide.

I don't think it provides much over a stock motor, but its very cheap to do, and it does breath better on the top end. If I had 3.73's I think it would respond much more.

Its cheap alternate to porting in my opinion. I beleive Super Six uses this intake on their V6 fox too, and that thing ran 10's last time I read about it.

Thanks for the coments guys... trying to get this thing stickied.

I have some updated pics for the throttle/cruise cable bracket. We also fixed the hood scoop issue I had, by slightly crushing the end of the intake pipe, basically ovaled it out a bit.

Cruise control works now.

Thanks to my buddy Brad for making the modifications.
