thats the one for the 4.7. they also have ones for the magnums, its just how the shaker bolts up to the intake that differs from the two different engine families.

there is some type of greenhouse gas that pvc gives off thats not good for people but i have no clue about the engine. i replaced my stock intake box thing with a 90 degree pvc elbow and haven't had any problems with it but who knows. i want to get 4 inch abs plastic with two 3 to 4 inch connectors and run it from the tb to the air box but i don't really need 10 feet of abs which is the shortest i can find it lol

This is the quarter mile run I made.....Don't mind the reaction time, about a half a second of that is the poor throttle response my truck has.

These are the numbers to go with the curve....
