I have them,You need them,comes with plates,mounting hardware and gaskets that look good and reuseable.
should be for 2005-2010 Mustang
The charge motion valves are a unique design by Ford... The 3valve is a great engine because the airflow from intake, through the engine, and out the exhaust port is very fast. There are very few curves. This high-flow is great, but with one catch... it kills torque. This was a problem on previous mustangs.
So Ford installed closure plates right above the cylinders which slow down air and disrupts air before it enters the cylinders. This increases torque a lot, and is the answer to making such a powerful engine out of such a small block. But when torque starts to take a backseat to RPM at higher speeds and higher RPMs, those closure plates start hurting airflow, and the car will be lacking in power and not have any power on the high-end. So Ford's design has a motor built onto it, and those closure plates will open up at higher RPMs in order to squeeze out as much horsepower as possible.
So the idea of getting rid of these cool closure plates came about when people realized that even when the plates are open at high RPMs they still don't fully open, so the car is still being limited. So Steeda invented charge-motion DELETE plates, which are replacement plates that do not have the closure plates/valve/doors inside them. They're empty. Air can flow freely into the cylinders.
This link shows what they look like and how to install them as well.
