to get to fit i think you would need to lower half the centre fins and the breather
now i think about it

as the cross over pipe will sit highter than the tb

i could be wrong

but

im sure i see someone remone the fins so they can mount the pipe lower

It's a waste of time TBH. You have to remove most of the centre fins and the Ford Motorsport logo. A lot of work.

I had one done for my turbo conversion. Cost a fair bit to get sorted and still needed a bit of fettling.
