Intake Question

Hey guys, I'm brand new to Fords in general, but I have a question about this intake. Is this a stock Ford intake? Is it just a dual inlet cold air intake? I'm looking at this truck and any information would help. Don't mean to be ignorant, but I sort of am ignorant to this engine and intake. Thanks.

You will have to raise the hood on the Harry Gant Chevy Lumina model if we are to see the intake.....

That is a cold air intake for a MAF EFI 302.

1) The air intake is on the top left side of the radiator, between the grill and the hood where it draws cold air from outside the engine compartment.

2) The air travels thru that intake to the bottom of the filter box whisch is on the left side of the engine.

3)The air then leaves the top of the filter box thru the silver MAF sensor and into the long black hose.

4)The black hose splits into two tubes each leading to a barrel on the throttle body.

That is a very clean truck!
