Heres the info. i found...



All three intakes (cobra, gt40, explorer) use the same lower intake. The gt40 flows tends to make the best power of all three, but on paper flows comparable to the 93 cobra. The cobra and explorer are comparable, a slight advantage to the cobra.

Here are some flow numbers from Edelbrock - if you can decipher the table ( the first 8 numbers are each runner, the 9th number is the avg)


The Raw Numbers
Runner CFM
Intake 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8, Average, Flow Differential CFM, Percent, Avg. CFM per sq.in.

Stock 5.0: 123 140 142 145 119 139 133 150 136 31 21 90.7

Saleen/Vortech 157 174 178 161 154 170 174 173 168 24 13.4 56.4

GT-40 186 202 202 204 182 197 198 201 197 22 10.8 93.4

'93 Cobra 187 203 200 200 188 206 207 208 200 21 10.1 102

'94-'95 Cobra 184 200 197 198 186 206 206 207 198 23 11.1 99.5

Edelbrock 206 212 209 209 203 215 215 206 210 12 5.6 108.2

Downs Ford 193 183 215 203 191 219 207 226 205 43 19 97.2
