Is there a problem with running a stock 5.3 intake in our fsj?

Nope, but it depends on which motor mounts you use

I used JeepinPete's mounts, and the only issue was the snap-on cover. Once that was removed, 5.3 intake cleared with no issue.

Very nice! That is reassuring. Any issues with the factory truck accessories?

Just put the hood back on mine, the 04 engine cover fits with no issues with the novak mounts.
