I think all stangs 86-01 have some sort of one, i could be wrong.

but i know 86-93 have them for sure.

I believ that the model year there is 87-93, and yes they do definently have them.

Should be from the first efi--'86--to present. If memory serves me correctly '85 was the last year for factory carbs.

Is it something worth removing? What does that actually do? Thanks...

It's worth the effort to remove it since it might give you 1 or 2 more horsepower just for removing it.

All it does is try and make the sound of the incoming air more quiet.

I wonder if there has ever been a dyno run with it on and with it off to see what the true numbers are for removing it?

Actually, there is a dyno. I have a dyno book. It shows like a 5-6 hp gain at the wheels.

I Recall MM&FF did runs at the track with their lincol mark VII, and they dropped a tenth in the QM by removing the snorkel AND changing to a k&n.
