Right Jerry...When they say "for EFI",they are referring to the SEFI like the Sport and your Cougar have.

Speaking of SEFI,the Explorer intake is going out tomorrow. I haven't had any time til after the UPS closes. Take care of it and love it as I did.

I will Vin.....did you name it?
This will work out great...my wife is going away on business for 10 days...I'm planning on trying to put everything together while she's gone..... Headers will be here tomorrow and I have a lot of wiring up to do

Buy 1" tall intake manifold spacer kit.
Buy 3/8" tall spacer as well. 
Use both spacers with extra gasket.


They'll not fit on an EFI motor......

Oh BTW -- this will clear a stock hood.

They are for small block Ford engines. They aren't for actual (as we know them) COBRA JET engines. They were big blocks ....except for the 351 Cleveland...351CJ as used in the '71 Stangs). They aren't for the EFI engines due to the oil fill either being under the intake on the driver side,or under the throttle linkage on the passenger side. You need to have some serious motor to back those up.

I think the oil fill would clear on the drivers side, just put a rubber cap in the the other side. You may have to run a longer hose from the passenger side to the throttle body.
In my opinion there are better covers cheaper out there, hint hint Vinnie!!

13/8" spacer will still clear the hood? I'm not to sure of that,I never  tried it though.I doubt it would with Chucks mounts though.
