    Trick Flow does offer their intakes with 351 Lowers. Or you could go with a EFI Truck 351 Lower which is basically the same as a Holley Systemax.

    I have an aluminum FI 351w lower intake from a truck for sale, and an oil pan for a fox swap. You can have both for $100

    I'm 99% sure the pan will still work on a 94-95. The k member is the same as the fox cars. I have some other misc. 351w stuff as well. If you need anything let me know, I may have it.

    I have a set of 351 HP drop solid motor mounts and a set of 351 swap header that will work for you car. PM me if you are interested. I have done a few 351 swaps in fox bodies, sn95's and rangers. Good luck

    I used this as a guide. I also needed after market fuel rails (the stock ones weren't wide enough, the 351 intake is wider) a fuel pressure regulator (the rail mount won't work) and many fuel rail fitting to hook into the stock fuel lines. I bought the 351 headers but I could not get the old 302 h-pipe to seal. I had to buy a new 302 h-pipe. It says the a 86-93 will need a accessory drive kit but the 94/95 did not. I did need the damper spacer. If you need any other info or part # let me know.
