5.2 Intake Manifold on 5.0?

[UPRSteve]

If this does work 100% it's going to be a great high rev alternative. As of now all we can do is a BOSS or CJ manifold swap and run the UPR Adj motor mounts.

This is where they said the heads and manifold fits

You know what to do with the URL

Ford confirmed this intake will fit the 5.0 guys.

And the heads, there is valve shroud issues but the heads fit.

They confirmed the intake and heads fit the 5.0. Which means the intake manifold fits on the 5.2 heads that bolt to a 5.0 engine. It doesn't say the intake manifold fits the 5.0 with the 5.0 heads though. Perhaps they need to be a little more clear on what they are saying.

I thought someone took a picture of both manifolds and they were not the same.

I've seen loose parts.. The intake manifold will fit on the 2015 GT, and the heads are interchangeable.

Let's just post the full quote instead of certain words

"With 90 percent of its 429 lb-ft of torque on tap from 3,450 to 7,000 rpm, the 526-horsepower Voodoo 5.2-liter V8 powering the Shelby GT350 is pulls hard on the track. If you bang the gears at 8,200 it will snap your neck back. This engine will be legendary, and we did finally confirm that the heads and intake fit a Coyote 5.0-liter. The fitment isn’t optimum as the valves will be shrouded, but it will work. Of course, you’ll have to run cams for a standard firing order to make that happen."

So you will need not only the intake manifold, but the heads AND cams. You're taking WAY more money than getting the engine built out or forced induction; for something that may or may not add any significant gains on the 5.0. PLUS valve shrouding annoyances which may not be optimal to power.

Just swap the heads and intake. The stock GT cams are big enough.

Gt-350 Heads have bigger valves and hit the cylinder wall is what I have read. Plus the GT cams wont work because of the firing order.

Thats exactly why you need GT cams in GT350 heads put on a GT. You can't run the 350 cams. I'd like to see if the intake bolts up without the heads.
