At one time last year I had found at one of the bronco parts sites a 351 lower manifold that will bolt to a 5.0 upper manifold. I have the entire FI set up off of an 89 5.0 H.O Mustang which I want to put on my 69 bronco's 351W. Anyone remember the site or know where to find one ive been looking all day!

I remember seeing an adapter to mate the HO upper to the 5.8 truck lower, is that what you mean? I assume you're doing this for hood clearance? If that's the case then this should gain some, though its hard to say how much after the adapter is added. If you're looking for more HP I don't think you'll find it, the HO intake doesn't flow as much as the 5.8 truck intake. In that case what you want is the Eddy Performer(car version), or for about 1/2 the $$ the Professional Products Typhoon.. a Performer copy.

I have 100% complete Speed density system. I decided to go with the manifold adapter from BC, once I find a lower manifold for my 351. Which intake gaskets would I use then?? 79 351W? Or whatever year the lower manifold is from.... or are they the same???

Conanski, What do you think about your typhoon? Complaints? According to an article in fordmuscle they had to do a lot of gasket matching. Which isnt a big deal.... I dont know if it would be a good Idea for me to get a nice intake as I will be running a speed density set up for a while.....
