Default New Intake Manifold

Well, the plastic coolant crossover on my intake manifold on my 98 GT is broken and ford wont replace it under the recall becuase my car has a rebuilt title. So whats the best route to go on getting this replaced? Are most all of the intake manifolds I buy aftermarket going to perform better than stock? I need something thats cheap but will hold up and not crack or anything like the stock one did.

I saw this but its not a direct fit. I didnt see any on Mustangtuning.com specifically for 98's and I dont have the money right now to do the PI head swap.

So help me out please. Any links on which Intake I need?
Also, how much labor is involved with installing the new intake?

Thanks

The manifold in the link I posted will fit?
From how I read it it sounded like it will fit if I get the PI head swap to go along with it?

How does that look? Looks like it still has the plastic crossover though?

But if I do decide to find an OEM one, is it going to be much less performance than the after market manifolds?
And theres no way to just replace the crossover? It seems a waste to replace the whole intake.
