pretty simple bolt on. done it twice. take some close up pics with your digital camera and make sure you put everything back exactly as it came off.
trick flow should send some detailed instructions, too. good luck. :thmbsup:

yah, that is really easy, and i think they give you directions if you get lost.. or just give me a call at the shop if you need any assistance.

Tell CLARK, if you both want to get them done at the same time i will give yinz a better deal.. i think when i did Troll's car, the headers and cams were worth 80 or 90hp.. please correct me if i a wrong Troll...

Impressive..I will let him know! Also, do you do tranny work? I think I might be buying a used transmission in the fall due to the high milage on mine, and things starting to break..

About 50hp at the wheels. It put down 239 before the underdrive pulleys, cams and headers. 294 after.

Make sure you check all the wires and connections when you get the plenum back on...first time i did it i forgot to hook back up the cruise control. I was itching to get back on the road.
Ok well after christmas I gotta buy my car a gift, and an throttle body/plenum is what I want..I see BBK has out this one piece and on AM.com, they say "NOTE: A 78MM Throttle Body is suggested for a heavily modified GT as a stock and mildly modified GT does not flow enough air to benefit from the larger Throttle Body." Is this true? Is my car modded enough to handle this intake? For the price being 250 and the trick flow combo being 250 Id rather go BBK. Any info asap would be cool, I wanna order this tomorrow so I can install this over the weekend!:thumbsup:

Josh just get the 78mm. Then you'll have it. Marks and Joes cars run amazing with it

I like my C&L/BBK 75mm combo with a JLT fenderwell, I have seen Mark and Joe's car and they liked it alot too...I dont see why 78mm would be to big, I'd say go for it. I know the part of the thread that mention headder install was back in August but have you guys gone to have them done yet? I have a set of BBk long tubes that need installed yet and Im debating on whether to swear at em for 8+ hours or take em to a shop. I would imagine the shop would jus drop the K-member huh?

On my thread below when I asked about exhaust parts and on what to do next. I asked if thats my next cheapest best bet, but no one really responded. There is an article on page 108 on how to do it in the January 09' Muscle Mustang & Fast Fords Mag with John Urist on the front. Plus, u get the Hot! Bonus! 2009 Bikini Calendar with this issue!

haha ok buddy, thanks for the invite :) back on topic...if you plan on doin a centrifugal supercharger, cams, heads, or exhaust go for the 78mm and even if you dont plan on it go for the 78mm anyway....More air flow never hurts. Its a really easy install too, Like I said before, def go for it, im sure you wont be disappointed. It will be money well spent.

what the hell more advice do you need? some people think its too much but your going to continue to mod your car anyway. Im going to be buying the same piece shortly.
