    Intake

    Whats the best bang for the buck? Used stang intake & breather or a exsploder one. I 'm geting ready to fix the oil leak on the intake. The backside has been leakking for bit so I figured while I have it apart replace..
    Both should bolt on pretty easy on a 91..Thanks. Don

    i think the explorer ones are more desirable. But i dont believe you gain any benefit if you do not bore out the egr spacer, or get a larger throttle body.

      On a stock lopo? I'd go with a Mustang one. You don't need more than that. HO and non-HO lowers are the same, so you only need the upper, a bored out egr spacer, and a modded throttle body. If we're talking something more lively than a stock motor, then the Explorer one is a better bet. Explorer one needs the hard to find Lightning EGR spacer, and generally both the spacer and the intake go for quite a bit more than a boring old HO upper does.

        why does an explorer need the lightening spacer? is it because the stock lopo spacer cannot be bored out to match the explorer upper?

          it wont seal......not enough gasket surface.....the opening of the explorer upper is at least 67mm and the most you can bore a lopo spacer to is 63mm
