99 Intake on 02 5.4?
Well I am replacing the intake on my truck since the plastic is cracked on one of the runners. I have a friend that has a metal intake off a 99 with a 5.4. Since the 99's had PI heads I assume this intake will fit on my 02 with no issues? Just looking to put a stronger intake on it since I'm running a procharger setup.

I'm pretty sure only the late 99's had PI heads. Also mines a Dec of 99 build date, but considered a 2000 and I have the plastic intake as well. So I'm not entirely sure the metal intake manifold was available for PI heads.
If there is a metal intake manifold for PI heads, I can't see why there would be an issue mounting it to another PI motor. Just take a look at the intake ports. If they match then you should be good. - Erik |
almost all 99 5.4's had pi heads. there may have been a few npi's early in 99 but i've never heard of one in a 99 yet. the aluminum intake will work just fine.

The 99 engine in my truck has Pi heads. You should be fine.

The aluminum intakes have a much different gasket under the throttle body.
I have both intakes in a '99 and '01 and '02. Went to clean the TB and had to get different gaskets. The plastic one uses a rubber band type while the aluminum uses traditional. |

99 F250's w/5.4's didn't have PI heads, just the 1/2 tons. That's all you have to worry about when looking for used heads and engines.
Neither did the E models. |
