Depends on the year. 99 and earlier Taurus/Sable lower intake manifolds are almost the same as the 99+ SVT LIMs(which was updated and derived from the 3L LIM). Meaning they are both split port aluminum with secondaries and they WILL fit.



The aluminum split port 3L LIM's will bolt up as long as the secondaries are removed. The secondary linkage makes contact with the bottom of the 2.5L UIM if not removed. I suppose you could cut/weld new linkage in place if you really wanted to, but it's far easier to get the late 2000 Cougar LIM and bolt it in place without a fuss.
