Here are a couple pics I had friend in the kitcar world send to me. It will fit on a pre '96 3.8. He figured that the top of the stacks would sit about 2" above the top of the firewall or about 5" above the top of the 3.8 heads so it might or might not sit higher than the engine lid. I would imagine the inner engine lid panels would need to be cut away over the engine.

Is there a configuration like this that is commercially available for the 2.8 I wonder?

Cheers
Don

There was a Ryan Falconer intake available for our engines. Six individual throttle bodies.
Kris Munson had one. They are beautiful. They are expen$ive (read: thousands). They are a b!tch to tune. (Kris's words.)

I spoke with him about 2-3 months ago and he had 2 on the shelf and he wants $1500 for the 2 piecs intake, with individual butterflies (his words), injectors, rails and throttle linkage. If I had $1500 to spare.

The price is better than I thought, but it's still a tremendous overkill.
The Trueleo is less than half that price (probably even with all the custom tweaks that you can dream up) and will still flow more air than the heads can handle.

Falconer's is still beautiful, though.
Did he mention what size/type injectors came with the package?

No but all you gotta go to the falconer site and call the number.
