Not a thing for performance. I believe there is an issue with some plastic manifolds cracking in that area so that manifold has it replced with an aluminum section. Check the TSB's above or do a search on cracking intake manifolds. Mark

Don't you already have that intake on your car?

It's a stock intake manifold with aluminum cross over so it won't crack and leak coolant. That's what happened to my stock intake and I will be ordering one of those with the aluminum cross over.

My '99 has the original plastic intake crossover, was there a recall or is it just a do it yourself deal? Thanks, Mark

I just had to put one of them on my car last week. Its just an updated model. You can go to a ford dealer and get one for 180 w/o gaskets.

Yeah mine cracked and leaked now I have to replace it. I called a few Ford dealerships and they said there wasn't recall but an extention on the warrentee with them, but it expired last year. So I'm just ordering the aluminum-cross over manifold for $200.

Yeak ford racing makes them. The front runner on the 99-01 were known for cracking cause they were all plastic. This is the mew updated model.
