-> Here you go, from Super Ford Magazine's 5.0 Intake Manifold Shootout,
-> July '93:
->
-> std. 5.0 intake 35 lbs.
-> Extrude Honed 32-1/2
-> '93 Cobra 35
-> Tbird/Cougar 34
-> GT-40 28 (cast lower, cast/tubular upper)
-> Saleen 39

Thanks!


-> The factory gave it a shot with the GT-40 intake. I think you could
-> do even better with fiberglass or a molded plastic piece.

I'm fairly sure you could get a fabricated aluminum intake down around
15 pounds. That'd shave 20 pounds right off the top of the motor.
