Cobra intake on GT

[r1ch999999]

I found this Cobra intake on Facebook Marketplace. How can I tell if it'll fit a 94 GT? The seller doesn't know anything about it. If it does fit, what else will I need to put this on my car?

Pelham NH is like 20 minutes from me.
Where are you located.
That guy kinda sounds like a dick

yes it will fit. Is that really what they are going for now? I got mine 15 yrs ago for I think $200 before I spent a little time and money to perty it up

I just realized it is a fox body version. The AIT sender is in a different location, but you can always plug it and not use it or put an offboard sender for a real temp gauge. You will also need to swap the throttle body cable to a fox version as well as the intake or get the add-on elbow

Thanks for the info, for that price I might look for something else. I just want something that'll fit with my strut tower bar and give me a bit more power.

you have to run an aftermarket strut tower brace with the cobra intake.

I just sold an unpolished upper/lower + mystery 75mm throttle body in 4 hours for like $500 plus shipping.

now polished with the TB, if it had the lower you gave them a deal

I did the same swap on my car years ago. I may have seen a slight performance gain, but it's hardly noticeable. The major restriction on a stock 302 is in the heads and cam. As stated above, you do need an aftermarket strut tower brace to clear the Cobra intake. It's a great looking modification under the hood, and the Cobra intake will support upgraded heads and cam down the road. I would not discourage the swap.

But, you may be better off looking for a '94-'95 specific one on eBay.

I got a 94/95 specific one specifically because I think it looks cleaner than fiddling around with the elbow.

I felt like it made a huge difference from 4000-5500 rpm even with the E7 heads and it favorably changed the exhaust tone a little too - well listen for yourself.

Right now on ebay there are a couple of the BBK dual plenum intakes.. I don't know if those fit under the hood of a SN95 but I always thought they look really good.

Has any one thought about a gt40 tubular intake
A little more torque never hurt
Only the wallet

that is the only other intake I would trade mine for. Of course I would have to put some cash in on top but idunno still dreaming of a 351 based build next and those tubulars are STUPID....

There arent any aftermarket intakes that fit under the stock STB.

I didn't see this part under the video. The BBK intakes looked cool but were crap for performance and why you just do not see them that much.

I know the heads can make a big difference in sound as well. I had a raspy sound on mine with the x pipe and side exhaust till I put trickflow heads on it then the rasp went away.

Heads cam intake combo every thing matching
Are the key

Any idea how much power that added? I'm not looking to win races, I'd just like to get out of my own way better. If I could do something like your picture with some better gears, I think I'd be where I want to be.

None of these are going to add enough to feel unless you have some other things like heads/cam to go with it.
