Re-read the thread. If you have a coolant leak at the crossover tube, the plastic intake is known to fail. Installing a new gasket at the crossover tube won't fix the leak.

Ok I will be sure to just change all gaskets and Owings as I come to them. Thanks again broncoholicRe-read the thread. If you have a coolant leak at the crossover tube, the plastic intake is known to fail. Installing a new gasket at the crossover tube won't fix the leak.
It's been a while but just now getting back into fixing the Expy. The top end is literally completely apart and I'm assembling the parts I need to get it back on the road. Trying to source the intake, has anyone ever tried this brand?
ATP brand intake
I know, I know, OEM is the best bet but money is a concern sooo... Thanks!
I recommend sourcing OEM the way I have. I order from FordParts.com and "shop" from Lakeland Ford in Central Florida. Their prices are consistently under MSRP. I live on the east coast of Florida and my 2 local dealers sell parts at MSRP. When I order from FordParts (Lakeland Ford) most of the items ship directly from a warehouse not in Florida, and they ship FAST, so it doesn't matter to me what dealer I "shop" from. Also, by creating an account on FordParts, you get FREE shipping. The OEM intake is currently backordered, but so is the ATP. Here's a screen shot, it's basically the same price as the ATP.I know, I know, OEM is the best bet but money is a concern sooo... Thanks!
It will be more expensive when you do it twice.I know, I know, OEM is the best bet but money is a concern sooo... Thanks!
