intake manifold cover!?

[BobCarter]

I have a 99 5.0 and was wanting to replace the manifold plaque that is one my intake. I'd like to try and find one that says cobra or 5.0 HO. I've called some used parts places, but am not sure what year mustangs would fit my intake, if any at all. They seem to be broken up into the 87-93, and 94-95 brackets. Anyone have any advice on this? thanks

BobCarter,

I do not know which is which on the stock plates but I have an idea...

Get a piece of aluminum, the correct width, length, and thickness to fit your project. Cut it to fit your intake, the way you want it.

Now, either have the numbers and letters milled in by a machine shop or friend, or buy the 5.0 / H.O. / Cobra symbols from Ford, the ones with the adhesive on them, and stick them on.
That way, it is the size and shape you want.

The stick on version will stick up a little but if you make it out of two pieces of aluminum you can cut the second piece to go over the stick on symbols and it will looked recessed or maybe you can mill out a section and put the stick-ons in the milled area.
There are endless ideas, so sit back and talk to a friend; oh ya have a brew.
