DS PCV hole is a bit further back. Interferes with the wiper cowl strut.

Yes they will fit.... may take some work to get them to work.

What are you looking for, something in a different design, or a different color? As the other posters indicated, ours are kinda eunuch...

'96-'98 Cobra has the PCV bung smack in the middle of the valve cover. It will interfere with the TB

True, just install a plastic elbow and that will solve the problem.

Thanks for the heads up, I'm in the middle of an Aluminator swap and noticed the PCV bung location. Wasn't too sure if it would be a problem, seems like a simple fix.
