Can anyone help me? I have a 1996 XLT 3.0L and I cannot find any intake mods. The best thing I have been able to find is just a simple air filter from
K & N. I would really like something that would help out more than just the filter. Maybe I just over looked somthing but if someone could help that would be great.

Thnx,
Stephen

Hey Zach, let me know how it works out. I've been kicking the idea of getting one around for a while, but I'm just not sure if it's really worth it.

I think my best plan for now is just to find an intake that i like that has the same bolt pattern as the '96 and "work" on it to make it work. Dont really know how well this would work though. I still have alittle time to think about it all. I want to finish paying off my truck before I blow all my money on mods.

ive heard that the solid pipe is really the key as it is smooth and doesnt change shape while alot of air is flowing through it
