Intake Question

1sl0w88 · February 21st, 2009, 07:09 PM

Ok guys and gals, I have a question.

I found what I believe is an upper Explorer intake in the local bone yard but I am not sure. The casting numbers on it are F67E 9425 BA. Does this sound right and would it be worth getting for $25 ? It is only the upper.

believe that's it. came from a 1996. i think...

i just read the section on casting numbers in the "How to Rebuild the Small Block Ford" book.

good book by the way.

I dont have that book

The intake was in the back of a 97. Its not now tho because I hid it

the F is decade (1990-1999) the second number is the year of production. the third charactor is suposed to be a letter. maybe it's 1996-1997 in this case...

. but the part number is an intake manifold. (had to google for that one.)

and, i got this book, SHIPPED, from some discount book seller on eBay for under 9 bucks in brand new condition. it's a good source of information. lots and lots of pictures on almost every page too.

1sl0w88 · February 21st, 2009, 07:45 PM

What does the last two letter stand for? I tried google also but all I found was "ca" instead of "ba". Does that make any difference?

Squints · February 21st, 2009, 07:55 PM

the last charactor is the suffix. which indicates the revision, or design change, under the part number and pertains to aplication or use of said part. A is original, B is the first revision C... D... so on. it doesn't say anything about BA.... but the last charactor(s) is just stating the revision to the original piece. that's all i got from the book anyway.

found this.

Design Change:
The Suffix denotes the change level, for example: A = 1st change level, B = 2nd change level, etc. Often this indicates what application the basic part is used for. For example - 9425-A is for a 289 2v motor, whereas a 9425-B is for a 289 4v motor.

So this should be what Im looking for. Correct? And I can probably get it for less than $25. That is the price for a complete intake assembly. But it wont do me any good without the lower intake will it?

Squints · February 21st, 2009, 08:09 PM

you'll need the lower.

keep ckecking craigslist. people area always selling 5.0 parts on there. i found a few in s.carolina just now. one had a bunch of parts. upper/lower intake, heads. all that good stuff.

1sl0w88 · February 21st, 2009, 09:04 PM

Thanks Squints.

Ill probably go ahead and get the upper anyway since its cheap. Cant hurt.

Squints · February 21st, 2009, 09:12 PM

you may have trouble finding just the lower. unless you get it from a bone yard also. most folks that sell them have both and want to sell together. but good luck bro.

Rage Wraps · February 21st, 2009, 09:25 PM
