Ok i'm finishing up a 96 explorer 5.0 /4r70w swap into the bronco. I need some help with the air filter set up. I have to keep the computer connections in the fresh air intake but the explorer set up is toooo big. What do you guys use for the filter / fresh air plumbing on these?
Thanks Bax.

What's tooooo big? I assume you're trying to use the stock Explorer airbox?

I'm using the upper intake off a 96 along with the T-body, intake hose and MA sensor. I'm using an adaptor on the MA sensor so a AEM dry filter will attach. It fits on top of the inner finder with no issues.

If you're trying to use the stock Explorer air box, you will need to move the battery to the D-side and put the air box where the battery was.
