A GT-40 intake IS smog legal. The CARB number is D-308-10.

If the smog tech won't pass you then print out the document found in this link

http://arb.ca.gov/msprog/aftermkt/devices/eo/D-308.pdf

and bring your Ford Racing catalog with you to show him that the part number in the CARB Executive Order matches your intake.

BTW.. I have passed twice w/ my Gt-40 and not had any hassle.

If the smog tech is going to give you a hard time then I would just go somewhere else.

EDIT: I just read my FMS catalog and it says the GT-40 intake is "not for sale on polution controlled vehicles". Pretty strange contradiction, Ford says it's not legal yet there is a CARB number for it

Ive had smog techs not give a damn about what carb #s I brought. Its all about the tech- some dont care, others will tell ya to take a hike. They reserve the right to flunk you for any reason they deem different from stock.
But yes I do believe that the gt40 will pass smog with an agreeable tech and those carb #s.
The gt-40 is a better manifold for out of the box performance IMO.

Depending on your combo I wouldnt go with either.I personally would suggest the Edelbrock Performer.

i thought you was trying to sell a RPM intake, why would you sell that and get one of these

the cobra intake is not smog legal unless it's an original cobra intake.. meaning it came from a 93 cobra engine.
I talked to a dealer and they told me that .... so whatever.. the people doing the smog check might not even notice..

yeah but it came stock on the 93 cobras so i dont see how it would not be smog legal.

because even ford racing intakes are replicas they are not the original ones that came on 93. it's bs but that's what i was told straight from ford.
good luck

Once again, Jersey is wrong

I would go with the Cobra. A, it is far less expensive. B, you can port it in the future and make it outflow the GT40.

I just smogged my car with a "Cobra" intake, 24 pound injectors etc. No issues.

Mr 2.19 on slicks .. i'm just telling you what the person at the service department told me.
whoever smogged you car probably didn't realize what you had.

Ahhh, that's what you ran, that makes sense then

don't make me whip the truth serum..

we both know who got those numbers..

On a serious note.. like i said before.. i don't know. that's what i was told at the service department when i picked up the intake... but we all know sometimes those people don't know shiat. so Don is probably right.
Good luck

Thanks Guys for all your help, i think i'm getting the cobra intake.

why chose either? They both suck compared to almost every other intake on the market. Go with the holley so you don't have to change intakes later when your combo is choked.
