Are there any Ford intakes for modular engines?
Ford Performance still carries a line of intakes for most of the modular engine applications. Through the years Ford Performance has also supplied many of the factory performance intakes through the parts catalog, so used manifolds are in good supply at the swap meets and online. Here are some of the manifolds currently available:
How much does a 5.4 intake manifold cost?
5.4 stock intake is designed specifically for maximum low end torque. It is something you’d want on a heavy truck. It’s not particularly pricy, it can cost you somewhere from $100-$300. There are drains and not drains. The drains are divided into horizontal and vertical.
What kind of manifold does a Ford 4.6 SOHC use?
Ford still makes available the PI version of its manifold for 4.6 SOHC (PN M-9424-P46). It has the upgrades to eliminate the early intake issues and with a matching set of PI heads works very well on the earlier 4.6 engines. (Photo Courtesy Ford Performance Parts)
Why is plastic used for aluminum intake manifold?
When the motor is running, vibrations occur that negatively affect the inlet manifold, which is why durable, vibration- and heat-resistant materials are used for its manufacture: plastic.

What kind of intake manifold does a Ford 2V use?
This design became the standard in the 2V engine through its production run. The first 4V heads used a dual-port intake manifold that consisted of a square port primary intake runner and a round secondary port for use above 3,000 rpm. These heads work adequately, but have some issues with low rpm torque.
Where does the Ford 4.6L engine come from?
Windsor – Windsor refers to the Windsor engine plant in Windsor, Ontario Canada. Ford added this second engine plant in 1997 to produce 4.6L and 5.4L engines. As noted above, 1997 was the first year the 4.6L showed up in the F-150.
