I've got a small crack in my intake manifold in my 1999 Police Interceptor (4.6L). Before I go out and get a replacement, I understand that aftermarket ones are cheaper and at the moment cheaper sounds better. What is a good company to get a aftermarket intake manifold for my car, what are my choices in models they carry, and is there anywhere I'd be able to get one without ordering it and waiting for it online.
Hurry with the responses please! I've been spending $8 a day on antifreeze! |

Everywhere I have read advises NOT to buy the DORMAN replacement intake due to quality problems. You will be better off in the long run to buy a FORD OEM replacment intake manifold. They are still good up to about 5500 rpm, and are reinforced to prevent coolant serpage.
There are several companies that do make metalic intakes, but unless you are looking for hi hp and hi rpm, does $500 seem like a good price. Check out

as well as others by searching for crownvic, modular engines, and the like and reading some of the forums. IMHO I think crownvic.US provides about the most accurate info around.
