Default Intake manifold?

I have a 95 F150 with a 5.0. Question is will a mustang GT intake manifold fit my truck 5.0? Looking at upgrading the engine and want a better intake. I know I will need different air intake. Looking at a tubular GT-40 one. Any help will be great. Thanks

The truck intake is better.

X2 it has longer runners for higher intake velocity which makes more low end torque.

X2 means he is agreeing "times 2". The stock truck intake is better than a stock mustang intake.

i could be wrong and i probably am; but, i was under the impression that the lower part of the intake of the truck was better than the lower part of the mustang, and the upper part of the mustang's was better than the upper part of the truck's intake? If someone could elaborate on that please.

I don't think the two would match even if it were true.

The mustang intake is different then the truck. Mustang owners like the truck intake better then a stock mustang.
