Doubt it. The GT plenum is longer than ours and the placement of the throttle body cover is also thinner and I believe lower than that of a GT. That really would look nice though.

no. the gt has dual throttle bodies i beleive, so the gt intake would not fit. somebody correct me if i'm wrong but i beleive that is the case.

Well he's just trying to fit the plenum cover I believe........
which would not fit because of the longer intake manifold and
wider throttle body and so on and so forth. They do make some
plenum covers for ours though.

I wouldn't even try it.The guys above are correct. Won'twork, won't fit.It's just a piece of plastic anyway.
It would be great if someone made a metal and polishedone for our 4.0's though.
Now that would look real nice.
However, I am considering installing a Shaker hood scoop system myself.
That's gonna be nische! Of course I'll open up the exhaust system first or at the same time.
Then a little tune and off we go!
