The intake opening is closer to 60mm on the SO uppers I've seen, throttle body and EGR spacer are 50mm... HO opening are larger than SO...

Oops yeah he did say "on the intake". Would make sense that the intake manifold itself would have a slightly larger opening.

Intake manifold openings are as follows:

SO upper is ~60mm

HO upper is ~65mm

Explorer/GT40 upper is ~70mm
