BBK: 1986-1993 Ford Mustang 5.0L Intake Manifold
Ever wonder why it does not fit our 94/95 mustangs? Well awhile back i was interested and did a little research. I got into contact with an employee from BBK and this is what he sent me
FITTING SSI INTAKE (5001) ON 94-95 MUSTANG GT/COBRA
ADDITIONAL PARTS REQUIRED
1. COBRA R (OR EQUIVALENT) COWL HOOD.
SSI DOES NOT FIT UNDER STOCK HOOD.
2. AFTERMARKET INTAKE ELBOW ADAPTER.
AVAILABLE AT PERFORMANCE RETAILERS.
3. 86-93 FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR.
BBK PART # 1706.
4. ADDITIONAL 3/8 PIPE PLUG TO BLOCK OFF IAT SENSOR HOLE ON LOWER MANIFOLD. (IAT ON 94-95 CARS IS IN THE INTAKE HOSE INSTEAD OF THE LOWER MANIFOLD)
5. 5/16-24 X 3/4? LONG BOLT.
6. 3/8-24 X 3/4? LONG BOLT.
FABRICATION/ MODIFICATION REQUIRED
1. MAKE A BLOCK OFF PLATE FOR THE EGR PORTS ON THE SSI INTAKE. (EGR ON 94-95 CARS IS LOACTAED IN THE ELBOW ADAPTER LISTED ABOVE). USE BOLTS 5 & 6 LISTED ABOVE TO ATTACH PLATE TO INTAKE. USE SUPPLIED EGR GASKET BETWEEN PLATE AND INTAKE.
2. HAVE A MACHINE SHOP OR QUALIFIED PERSON REMOVE THE LARGE TAB THAT IS BEHIND THE THROTTLE BODY OPENING ON THE UPPER INTAKE. SHOWN IN PICTURE BELOW

THE TAB NEEDS TO BE TAKEN DOWN TO THE SAME LEVEL AS THE THROTTLE BODY OPENING SURFACE IN ORDER TO MAKE THE ELBOW SIT FLAT ON THE INTAKE.
YOU WILL NOT NEED THE TAB BECAUSE IT IS FOR THE THROTTLE CABLE MOUNTING BRACKET ON 86-93 CARS.
94-95 THROTTLE CABLE BRACKET ATTACHES TO THE ELBOW.
SSI WILL WORK WITH BBKSTRUTTOWER BRACE PART # 2513/0 BY TRIMMING THE FOLDED OVER TAB OFF OF THE REAR PART OF THE BRACE.
THE BRACE NEEDS TO BE FLAT ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE FRONT SIDE OF THE BACK BRACKET.
BRACE SHOULD LOOK LIKE THIS WHEN TRIMMED.

NOTE: BRACE DOES NOT CLEAR COLD AIR KITS ON 94-95 CARS THAT HAVE BEEN CONVERTED TO 86-93 (FOX) STYLE THROTTLE BODY.
