Anyone running a T-bird/Cougar/Mark VII EFI Upper Intake?

I just picked up a good running 93 Cougar with the HO 5.0 (mass air). I know the upper intake sits lower than the Mustang models but thought I read that it might interfere with a manual brake master cylinder. Anyone running this?

Plenty of people running these. I have one on a pallet right now ready to install. Dont remember any problems with clearance on stock M/C. Someone will post a pic. I had a few somewhere, but cant find right now.

I have the EFI from a 92 T-Bird but I also have a vacuum booster with an angled bracket and a 2" body lift. I could not tell you if it will interfere with a manual booster but it should be fine. I have pictures in my gallery of the EFI setup.

Assuming the brake m/c is not an issue, can you tell if that motor and intake combo would fit under an unmodified hood without a body lift?

It should fit under the hood with no body lift. I have a 1" upper intake manifold spacer and I still have a few inches clearance.
