So my new upper/lower cobra intake arrived and the upper gasket is cracked somewhat do to shipping.

Can I reuse the stock one which is felpro or must I get one specific for the cobra intake?

I heard that that theyre differnt because of the ports?

Should I get a upper/lower gasket set for a 93' cobra?

Any help is appreciated im dying to get my car up and running again.

Im still running the stock e7 heads btw.

Ok I found a part # for a felpro upper/lower kit. Its MS95952. WHich includes upper to lower gasket and lower to head gaskets,distributor and another gasket of some sort.

I also just noticed do I use a throttle body spacer? Ive got a 65mm BBK unit with spacer

The EGR is built into the intake unlike the stock one where it connects to the spacer.

Don't use the spacer, just the throttle body. Make sure you cap off your water crossover lines...

EGR is bolted to the intake...there isn't a water crossover on a Cobra intake.
