I will getting a 351W soon and It will eventually be going into the t-bird
as a roller camed EFI 5.8...oohh, ahhh(giddy with excitment) so, being that I have a explorer upper and lower going on the t-birds 5.0, I would like to use the explorer upper with a cobra 351 lower when it comes time for the t-bird to recieve the 351. Thanks for any input received!
anyone? please?:(
The early explorers hadthe EGR setup like our cars did. The later ones (97-on up) had a different setup. You may run into emissions problems with a later one. Other than that I'm pretty sure it bolts up. Not 100% though....
Thanks Paul!...I've already got a 5.0 explorer upper, lower and t/b to use. I won't be running an egr spacer with the explorer setup, nor will I when I put in a 351. No emissions tests around mid-michigan at all, so I'm not going to worry about it.
Should bolt right up no problem.
awsome! I just found a lightning lower intake on E-bay, but I just don't have anough money for it right now:mad:
when you buy your 351 lower I want the 302 lower :) is it a egr version or no though?
Yep, its an EGR version with the two provisons; one in the middle and one at the back for the little rattlely solinoid thing. I might be able to sell you the 5.0 lower being that I need to get the $$$ saved up for the 351 lower as well as the headers and older style k-member so I can use mustang 351 motor mounts. However, I was going to put the 5.0 explorer intake on the bird intill I get the 351 all ready...what to do, what to do..Oh, by the way Bane, I think you gt stang has one of the coolest two toned pant schemes i've seen on a fox mustang. You could make It M&FF article worthy...
I have a friend that has a 351 GT-40 lower.It is ported and flows over 300cfm's.He wants like 350-375 for it but trust me, it is well worth it.
Thanks,
Chris
wow thanks, wish I could take credit for it but I bought it that way lol. But Im getting it repainted this summer (same colors) by then Ill have a new hood for it, fix a couple dings, and the new bumper will be painted. Im shooting for everything done exterior wise by carlisle but I dont see if happening :(
but keep me informed on the lower, I need something to do next winter :) hopefully a h/c/i install.
You should ask him if he'll take monthly installments!:hick: I'm gonna need that intake by the end of the summer. I wish I had the money for it...:(
name a price for the 302 lower, Ill buy that when the time comes and u dont need as much money :p (really want a new intake lol)
