Yea, you have to re-invent the wheel one side at a
time.

The 4k's intake basically eliminates headaches.  The
5kt has a funky angle for the throttle body (TB) and
it makes it really hard to fit fuel rails.  By using
the 4kq IM, you have tons of room for the fuel rail,
and you get some of the intake piping away from the
overcrowded pass side engine compartment.

TB=Throttle Body in the intake world, Timing belt in
the, um belt world?

dorF=Ford I guess it's our way of avoiding foul
language on the list.
