Also, I've read about a later model horn that is almost a direct swap. There's actually a set of pics and a thread about it on here somewhere, either BGilbert or Philip put it up. I always get them confused on here.

Here, I typed "air horn" into the search, this was like the third thread listed.

I dont mean to hijack the thread but thought it would be appropriate here. Is it worth upgrading the intake horn on a non I/C truck? or would it be more valuable to spend the money by adding an intercooler then upgrade the intake horn?

Spin off question: worth adding a first gen, second gen, or go for the powerstroke intercooler?

Second gen or powerstroke ic yes. 1st gen no

I've read it's easier to add a second gen ic to a non ic'd truck than an ic'd truck. Since you have to cut either way I don't think it matters. Both have aftermarket units available if you decide more than stock is needed

I went with a 2nd gen IC myself, as my 91 was NON-IC. It was pretty easy to install, just took a little cutting here and there, relocating the coolant overflow jug, trimming the battery tray, etc. Not hard at all ;)
