Default intake

For right now I would like to keep my stock intake because I plan on eventually getting a crate engine for my stang.....does anyone have any tips on how to improve performance through the stock intake on an 89 gt? I would really appreciate it

You said you wanted to keep your stock intake, so use a drop-in replacement filter.

with the crate engine you can run what ever intake you want, the upper and lower intake plenums are made to fit all 302 applications. if you are talken about cool air intake there are the same will work with all most any setup. call summit racing 1-800-230-3030

sorry...didn't know if the cone style would fit the stock pipes....essentially what i'd like to do is make a pipe that runs from my fog light holes on both sides up onto the engine.....the right side would have the intake at the end of it (my fog lights are missing )

talk to roundman, he's got that setup with the fog light, I'm sure he can tell you how he built it.
