Maybe a T-bird or ? but its NOT a pinto/must-II. what do I do for a hose now ? These guys used to be good about parts , now they just look at part numbers . | | | | | Joined: Aug 2007 Posts: 1,859 Grumpy old guy playing with trucks, cars, and boats | | Grumpy old guy playing with trucks, cars, and boats Joined: Aug 2007 Posts: 1,859 | you go to a good engine builder and have a hose made

Not sure if it fits T-Bird rack but worked great on my Mustang 2 setup. | | | | | Joined: May 2004 Posts: 1,312 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: May 2004 Posts: 1,312 | PS - remember to also get a " shim kit " to cut the pressure output of the Chevy pump down to Ford specs. | | |
