Need some info on my intake swap

[treynon]

Im customizing a 4x4 plenum for my 16v turbo ford 2.3 project with a sy/ty aftercooler and twin 58mm throttle bodies. So do any early 90s twin 58mm throttle bodies for 5.7 litres fit the same size as the garrett air water IC stock outlet? Where do I find the fittings between the TB and the Aftercooler? Thanks for the help.

yes they do... I believe the stock Ic to TB tubing was just 3" round that was squashed to the oval shape (might not be 3", but I think thats right)

I think it's 4". The connector from the airbox to crossover tube, and the 90 degree elbow were 3".

yep, IC hose is 4 inch round, stock is 48mm throttle bodies, anything 48-58mm will work

My instinct was 4... but then I was like, man that seems like it'd be too long .... thats what I get for thinking :roll:

:squint: I mocked up the intake just the other day... admittedly, only to fabricate a BOV mount, but that counts... sort of
