Yep, more than enough!

Well, a motor first would be better :)  Depends on the engine you are
going to
have built.  48 are way, way too big unless you are making your T3 a
dragster
(which would include intakes that extend into the cargo area).  40 is
the
biggest I would recommend and those would only be good on a
high-revving,
performance engine.
