Do you need one for a 4.6 or a 5.4? I got confused reading this thread.

Have you tried http://www.Car-parts.com ?

To make a long story short i am doing the PI swap and i assumed that since the heads are the sme for a 5.4 and 4.6 that i bought a brand new intake, fuel rail, throttle body, and injectors.... And we think there 24lb injectors for a 5.4. Then i came to find out its not the same. So i can use some of it on my 4.6 like the throttle body and what not. But im still out an intake!

Did you gasket match your manifold and heads your self?

 

I went to search on there and i dont know which intake manifold it is....

These are my choices

8-280 (4.6L), lower, ID 2L1E-9K461-BB

8-280 (4.6L), upper, ID YC2E-9424-BC

8-280 (4.6L), upper, ID 1L3E-9424-BA

8-280 (4.6L), lower, ID 1L1E-9K461-AA

Im guna need both an upper and lower right?

 

Hey JMC, yeah thats a good idea but I couldn't resist that ebay auction too...might as well get it anyways.

Hey jbrew, I dunno what I want yet, I'd like a real CAI ya know wit the big fancy cool looking filter and stuff, but if its worse for performance and fuel economy, why have it? Ya know. Recommend I yank out the silencer and do the gotts mod to this one? I do have the old intake housing in the shed...was thinking of working with that to try to do something with a highflow filter in it or somethin.

 

It's really up to you - I've built a few intakes in the past , but sold every one of them lol. They were nothing special , just a 3" tube . I'm running a stock 03 intake w/a WIX paper element for now. I would like get a nice one if and when I go with a tuner...

I wouldn't pull the silencer , besides , that's a PITA - The Gotts cold air feed mod is cool. Do the silencer if you want to experiment - I don't think it's that big of deal is all..

If and when you go for one???? .... Come on you know you will~~~

 

Hang on I'll look it up real quick -

Here yuh go -

upper intake manifold (9424) below



I think that's all you need.

Your old lower should work , heres a pick of both upper and lower (9461). -

 

Thanks for the info. And the 4.6 started going PI in 2001. RIght? If i remember right it was late model 2000's.

Whats the differance between 9424-BA and 9424-BC

 

Just the center #'s have to match . I'm almost positive - double check that.

Just stick with the 01 to be sure - but I think your right , sometime in 2000 (late) they went to PI

 

Hopefully its the BA. I just found one on car parts.com for $100

 

I am going to guess that one is plastic and one is metal.

Never thought about that. Thats a good insight!

 

The ford part # on the injectors is 2L1E-A5C, The Bosch part # is 0 280 158 001.

That was from the seller!

 

Hey jbrew, yeah i dunno what i want to do, I am still wanting to get that stock L tube off eba just so i have the option to revert to stock.

I did the silencer mod on the other one at first and it seemed to really help! I dunno, vise grips seemed to get mine out pretty quick

What CAI are you going to get SOMEDAY or do you suggest I get, i don't really want to pay the price for the AF1.....
