replace stock sensor with 5.0 sensor?
yes its very easy,
first step is to go buy a k&n cone filter with a metal back on it, you can look threw the boxes till you find one.
next get a hold of a 5.0 mass air from anything, a mustang or truck anything. next un screw the screws which it whould have two and take out the filter. then take a hack saw and cut out the center post. you can get a grinder and grind the rough metal left from the hack saw. when you now look at the mass air it should be a wide open cylinder, next take your original sensor and swap the sensors, the 2 little sensor wires should be explosed when you look through it. the mass air it done, the next step is bolting the mass air to the k&n. This is easy and you can use self taping screws. When the filter is bolten to the mass air you can just put it on the end of your exsisting intake tube. and then your finished. it costs around 30 bucks for the filter and i got my mass air housing for free. If you want to take your intake one step further and have three piece explorer intake tube you can easilly swap out two of the rubber pieces for a 3 inch pvc pipe. This helps alot. just go to home depot and buy about 2 feet of 3 inch pvc and stick one side into the 90 degree rubber pipe that attaches to the throttle body. next connect a 45 degree elbo to the end of the pipe and then stick another piece of 3 inch pvc after it. get a 3 inch rubber connector piece which is in the same isle in home depot and mount it to the mass air you just made. this is such a simple intake to make and i would be happy to make it for anyone. the pvc parts cost around 12 bucks and the filter is 30, say the mass air is around 15 tops so that 57 bucks for a full 3 inch intake all the way to the throttle body, and if you keep the glue and pipes clean you can paint them silver and then actually look like an aluminim intake tube. I can explain in more detail if nessessay. good luck trying it.
