if your going eaton, yes, if you just wanna swap upper and lower intake it will be a waste of time.
the intake cobra cams you want are 96-98.

+1, but IIRC, they're not just plug 'n play, they've got to be properly timed.

The cobra intake will also point to the passenger side which means relocating your battery. They are basically the same internally so don't waste your time.

not true. The cobra intake cams are worth 20hp when installing them dot-to-dot." Degreeing and advancing the intake cams is will increase tq a bunch, but only add a few hp.

The Marauder lower intake is better than a cobra lower.
