Boss 302 intake install

Cr3z-9j280-a
recently purchased 14 GT and want to upgrade intake to a Boss 302 manifold. Didn’t realize this line is unavailable indefinitely. Any work around or links to threads about work arounds would be appreciated.

Think he's looking for CR3Z-9J280-A which appears to be discontinued.

From what I understand the Ford Performance intake (or also known as the Cobra Jet Intake) out performs the Boss Intake. I wonder if that is why the Boss has been discontinued?

Found CR3Z-9J280-A here... https://www.levittownfordparts.com/s...424-m50br.html
and here https://www.tascaparts.com/oem-parts...fold-cr3z9424a
and here https://www.lascoautoparts.com/oem-p...-oem-cr3z9424a
and even here... https://parts.autonationfordwhitebea...fold-cr3z9424a

And the M-9424-M50BR here.. https://performanceparts.ford.com/part/M-9424-M50BR



Here is a little write-up on the intakes

As of March 5th is the last update from Ford was still going to be available once a supplier issue is resolved
I’m sure by now someone has come up with a work around, this part has been unavailable for quite awhile

They talk about it in this install
guess I answered my own question

I contacted 27 websites showing it as available, guess calling a few more isn’t going to hurt

Sorry for the wild goose chase... Looked like they all it in stock.

Lethal Performance was available for order online. All I had to give them from here was a credit card, but it shows no ship date or arrival date... Probably don't have one either but maybe... Also appears that Steeda is still showing available. They must be expecting it to be available soon or they may have one.

Lethal Performance site.


Steeda site...



Hope one of this is a good one.

Otherwise is the Ford Performance intake manifold still out there? Maybe an option if you can find one. Looks like it is a bunch more $$$. If not guess you will have to put a super charger on it.

Seems to be some confusion about what I’m looking for.
I have the intake already
Im looking for one of the pieces out of the “required” install kit, or a work around
CR3Z-9J280-A is the missing piece

The install kit part #Ford Performance M-9444-M50B
Kit Includes. The Ford Racing BOSS 302 Intake Manifold Installation Kit comes complete with fuel vapor hose (CR3Z-9G297-A), bracket (CR3Z-9G290-B), screw, fuel supply assembly and air inlet tube (CR3Z-9J280-A).


The above description reads a bit wrong and kinda looks like it is the air inlet tube which is actually a fourth piece with its own part number
CR3Z-9B659-B

The 3 parts in the kit are: Vapor hose, a little bracket, and a wiring harness

Thanks for all of your input and help but once again I have the intake already, no more links to intake suppliers are needed.

Thanks
Hope they answer the phone tomorrow
Wont complete my order on line(shipping to Canada maybe?)
Have had time to do some more reading on threads about manifold and it’s starting to look like you can get by without any of it. Will call Steeda or LMR Monday to confirm
