From whats i'm searching it looks like it does can anyone help and verify that, was looking one site from coolcats.net 50resto and all the parts were listed 86-95 for manifolds, so that wont be all problem will it?

Does any one know will the stock TB work on it now? or will it need an egr spacer? Also with cobra intakes you dont need an egr so that is the same with explorer intakes as well?

IIRC the 94-95 uppers have a 45* elbow that either bolts to where the throttle body would go, or is cast into the manifold itself (depends on which manifold). obviously you can't use the ones that have the elbow cast into the manifold, but you can unbolt it on some intakes

the explorer intake should be the same as the cobra intake

the elbow will work, as long as your throttle/TV/cruise cables reach far enough

so these look like they are casted on to it, so how would i know for sure, if the throttle cable would fit it?

The elbow on a 94-95 intake is indeed part of the upper. They are one piece. There are aftermarket companies that sell these elbows so you can mount the on aftermarket intakes designed for 86-93's and in turn use THAT manifold on a 94-95. The Throttle bodies are different as well. The mount holes are not even close so you cannot use a 94-95 throttle body on a 86-93 intake unless you use the adapter elbow in between.....http://store.summitracing.com/default.asp?target=egnsearch.asp&Ntt=Throttle+body&N=0+303842&D=303842&Ntk=KeywordSearch
Ive heard of people using the longer SN 95 linkage with a Fox manifold(the linkage must be modified.....),but not the other way around. I believe it will be too short.
