Thats awesome man...
Did you get the a new cobra intake from ford though?, cus yeah it'll work but its kinda cheep now because there cast in china and the upper plenum bolts they come with are crap!! I would use new ones if you can. And Im sure you already know to tap all the holes in that thing...
But really its not the best product finish that ford has sold, with some porting it'll get the job done though.. Its cheep cast to watch out for stripping!!
Thats gonna be an awesome set-up good luck and have fun. Stay cool I know its hot in texas to!!
