May be dumb but can't u just put a 01 cobra intake on and run a shelf vortech?
Sure but the piping will not clear the AC lines and other stuff

It may clear if you use a 98-02 Marquis A/C condenser like I did. The lines come out several inches lower and hook right up to ours.
Mounting brackets are different but no biggie..

As you can see, the condenser lines easily clear the 3 1/2" piping with room to spare on mine. The original condenser lines ran dead nuts center of my pipes. No fabbing whatsoever except maybe brackets. As you can see my radiator has been relocated so the two no longer bolt together. Not sure about the older one bolting right to the OEM radiator.

Thanks man, I bought a coyote to put in it. So as of now I guess don't need an intake swap
