Aftermarket Intake

Hey everyone, Im considering doing an aftermarket air intake on my 5.0L 1993 F150 and was wondering if anyone has found one they like in particular or that works best. Thanks.

You won't hurt anything with an open element filter but you don't stand to gain much of anything either, the stock air intake system already flows well enough for the rather modest breathing abilities of the truck 5.0.

you would be wasting your money to buy another intake. the best improvement would be to find the actual breather for the airbox from a 460 or 300 and swap out the 302 one.
