Explorers have the GT40/GT40P heads and Explorer intake. 96.5-00 I think it, the early year ones have the GT40. I posted about it before I'll look it up later when I get back from VT.

A how to with great pics and stuff on the Taurus fan install.

You can get gears out of 8.8 equipped Rangers/Explorers/F-series as well. Some have 4.10. Trucks also have a 31 spline diff you could technically upgrade too.

And some one else just suggested the mustang 94&95 does anyone no the size of the maf thats on them vehicles I heard 70? And its should be a 4 wire pigtail to perfectly connect right just plug and go right? And I really wana upgrade my maf I want more air and fuel! Well basicly what ever makes it faster I want to do! Can someone educate me please iv red up on some I just wana basicly have it okayed by the mustang world thanx and I thought this would be a great thread!

Im wondering if I got the gt40 intake will I have to grab the gt40 as well? What I'm asking is will the gt40 planem bolt up to the stock intake man? I no the elec fan will help and yes I have the high output altanator so it shouldn't be a problem!

GT40 upper and lower go to together, totally different intakes vs. stock one.

As far as the MAF is concerned, I only know for sure the 94-95 SN95 maf works. The GT/Cobra/3.8 all used the same 70mm MAF.

the gt40 explorer bolts up fine, you will need either the lower or a cobra lowere to bolt it on though .

you can use stock injectors, but if you want an upgrade i suggest you nab the 4 hole 19 lbs from the explorer while your at it.

i just got done yanking a complete gt40 setup with p heads not that long ago.
the explorer tb is 65mm and youll need to swap the arm on it to your stock one.
