Get the Holley Ultra-Lo Ram. Can use the same TB you would with the CJ, get the same or better performance and it clears the hood. Price is a bit cheaper though it might even out with the fuel fittings it needs
Do I need to? Mark is as legit as it gets in the community and if you’re unfamiliar with his work you’ve been under a rock
You’re hung up on comparing it to the turd 18 manifold when really you should be more curious about further CJ comparisons
Again, it’s widely known that 18manifolds don’t carry power very high and this has already been shown to compete with race ported CobraJets when using the same twin TB. Any downside/restriction this will have will revolve around the 87mm TB which is still well above 18 manifold range
Could be that for the F150s it’s more for the fleet operator for cheaper fuel and lower emissions whereas a mustang is more likely to sit for extended periods of time and be prone to things like moisture contamination. At least looking at the 2 fleets overall. There’s certainly some old farts...
Not sure if this helps you but Juggernaught offers this

It's been mentioned in various places that 17-18 IMRC signals changed from analog to digital like the TB protocol. Only reason I mentioned it and also why I said "I can't really comment on that though".
It's the same manifold as GT350. Minor difference in the passenger sensor location and the other thing would be the signal might be digitial like regular 18+ stuff but I can't really comment on that. Visually it's the same. NGOT8R has posted them before...
7500 is where I shift and love it.
Is there a viscous damper/balancer available now? Last I knew Fluidampr hadn't produced a coyote piece yet. Is there another one? Or are you referring to machine shop equipment?
He should be up around 7800 and you’re a bit high depending on how far you drop with the MT, I forget what the gear split is
Never said I had either. Unless you’re Stevie Wonder it’s no secret what I have. And I’ve run several boss manifolds before in various setups from stock untouched to full...
