This one is for Fuel injection #28385.

You will also need Edlebrock fuel rails, fittings, lines and adapters plus the FPR.
estimated price for everything???

I paid 290 for my intake through summit price matched LMR. $250 for fuel rails and components and $70 for your adapter plate if you wanted to keep your factory style TB & Plenum.

(I made my own Adapter plate for $8 of steel plate.)

would you happen to know about how much you ended up spending on the manifold and fuel parts needed to install it? or maybe even the part numbers of what you used to install it?

also has anyone tried the Trick Flow manifold/plenum?

Id wouldnt do an intake manifold unless you have plans soon and you have the money for it now.

I was looking at the other one because I already have a 75mm tb and cold air intake where the one you posted would add another $300-$400 to the build.

True, so i'd say if you want the manifold, go for it. But i seriously would consider the edelbrock. All in all, it would probably be more beneficial and cheaper than the track heat. and you can make the adapter plate to make the stock style plenum work with a steel plate and a dremel.

i bought the trick flow track heat intake not knowing the altenator had to be flipped around backwards in order for it to work.altenator was in the way of the turbo so i never got to use it. its just sitting in my garage going to waste ill cut a good deal if any1 wants to buy it.

if I had the cash right now I might but my job doesn't pay me enough so I'm doing more research on what I should do so when I have some money set aside that I can spend on my car I'll know what I want. plus I have to fix my thunderbird leaking manifold before I can go replacing my mustangs that works fine for now.
