unknown at this time.
would suggest changing that intake to on based on the plastic high density polyethylene material. it isolates the engine bay heat form the intake air by a huge margin.

Awesome thread. Hows has the truck been running for you?

Id like to do this same swap in my 98 2 door. I think my biggest area of confusion will be the wiring. What did you do and use for the wiring change over?

Do you have a lost of parts with part numbers for all fuel fittings and sensor adapters needed for the swap?
