Hello All,
Well, I finally got around to installing the big 95 5.0 cobra intake on the car and also a 65mm BBK TB. Everything was going well until I found out that the Cougars have even less hood clearance than the Birds (DOH). To make a long story short I worked out a way to lower the engine down 3/16th of an inch and that gave me just enough room for everything to fit. Had a number of issues with the TPS and the idle bleed off screw on the TB but after much work she now idles fine and the motor has a big jump in power. Its a great mod to be sure just make sure the hood will shut
Regards
Mark
