Title: Tubular GT40 upper intake manifold.
Post by: thunderjet302 on August 25, 2009, 10:49:52 PM
Yeah I want a tubular GT40 upper. I know it doesn't flow any better than the Explorer upper I have now but it just looks so  cool:D

Call me crazy but I like the satin one better. Since nothing else under my hood is polished it would look silly. Plus polished aluminium is a beotch to keep clean.

Hell for $500 I could just buy the NOS FRPP one the Ford Racing dealer by me has. I'm trying to spend less because, well, I'm cheap I guess;)

I'll second that emotion.Without the polish job they are wicked high.Personally,I like my Explorer intake (polished) better.It's all personal taste though.

Saleen intake is by far the best 302 intake ever.

Looks like I should sell mine - looking at those prices. Mine's mint with Mustang cover and tmoss ported lower. I was going to bolt it on this week but brakes have given me issues.

I love the look of the vortech/saleen the most.

I don't know which one is better looking but I just paid $800-$850 for this intake. These things are getting harder and harder to find. I believe I posted a pic of this before.

If it weren't for the fact it says Saleen in huge letters on it -- it would look nice.

Too many manufacturers screw up a good look on a product with huge logos....Tacky.

Yeah, I think the saleen one, much like the ugmo trick flow,vortech and holley intakes look icky. Dont care for that look. The Edelbrock, GT40, explorer, cobra intakes, that "style" appeal to me the most. The BBK SSI intake looks neet as does that roush intake.
