    Autolamp came on, speedo flying, no keys in, middle of the night! HELP

    Automatic lights on, elec speedo flying, no keys in, middle of the night! HELP Got up this morning and my thunderbird's automatic lights were on (barely an orange speck of light at this point)... Briefly hooked the charger and not only did the lights stay on but the speedo shot up to 55 (may...

    Can I reverse my M/C ports?

    LOL, hmmm let's see... 1. Never had the 'standard fox 3 port' - I got a REAL car that came with 4 wheel discs (except I hated the abs :p ) 2. Hey dreamz, open your eyes and read my sig! I have 275's WITHOUT flipping my quads (and could still fit 10.5's with even bigger meats BEFORE...

    Someone with headers off, please duplicate this photo for me!!

    I'm not just cutting it and leaving it. I am cutting a small piece out and replacing it with a recessed panel about 1" deep, just as Incon did for their twin turbo kit... or so thats the plan:

    Can I reverse my M/C ports?

    I just read up on combo valves, and this may be wrong, but it seems that it doesn't cut pressure in the event of a leak but has a valve that flips a switch in a car that has a low pressure light in the dash...? But it seems the important function of the combo valve is that is engages the rear...

    Can I reverse my M/C ports?

    Also, you say the shuttle valve inside the combo valve cuts off pressure when there is a leak but does this even continue functioning with a gutted valve?

    Can I reverse my M/C ports?

    How does the combo valve cut off during a leak?

    Can I reverse my M/C ports?

    Ok, I think I know what you were saying.... one bore but two valves...? But it is my understanding that a properly functioning M/C should have equal pressure at each port. Anyone else have input?

    98 Cobra m/c... which port goes where?

    I have a 98 cobra m/c in my thunderbird... I'm redoing some plumbing and wanted to double check which port was supposed to go where... I currently have the 12mm rear port going to the rear brakes and the 10 mm front port going to the front brakes... could someone check their car for me and...

    Can I reverse my M/C ports?

    Also, I plumbed my cobra M/C same config as my thunderbird's m/c WAS which ended up with the 12mm going to the rear brakes and the 10mm port going to the front... shouldn't this be backward if what you say is true? And of course the important question before I make my new lines... IS it...

    Can I reverse my M/C ports?

    Hmm, I thought the M/C only had one bore...? Hence the need of proportioning valves...

    Can I reverse my M/C ports?

    I have a 2 port Cobra M/C on my thunderbird. Just curious if it matters which port does front and which does rear...? I'd like to swap them.

    Someone with headers off, please duplicate this photo for me!!

    Ok, so I'm trying to build an 'under header' twin turbo kit for my 88 thunderbird. I'm trying to see how this is going to fit and before I do any cutting on the strut tower I need to know if I need to swap in a mustang K. I know it would help but I'd rather not right now... So basically, I'm...

    Best location for a fan temp switch

    I've got a basic fan temp switch (flat surface, two rings for zip ties) wired to my fan relay. I had it on the thermostat housing but it was keeping the car to cool. So I moved it so it's pressed up against the bottom of the drivers side rad tank (aluminum griffin) just under the hose... the...

    D&D Motorsports rear coilover kit.....

    Hahaha! Yeah, I didn't think of the relevance part but ya know, whatcha gonna do... Anyway, I'd be curious how that setup worked for him in that fashion. I'm thinking of still doing this on my Thunderbird, but making a new lower shock mount that is twice as tall so the safety sleeve is...

    D&D Motorsports rear coilover kit.....

    I know I'm resurrecting a way old post but I have a kit like the one on the picture, which I'm thinking of putting on my thunderbird. I was just noticing that the kit in the pic is installed wrong according to the instructions. The reason I noticed is because I have mustang shocks that are...

    How to get bushings and sleeve into front control arms...

    Ok, got it... the rear ones are a ******... Now my problem is, the very first one I did (the one that doesn't go all the way in, but rather needs to be flush on the inside) is in about 1/32" - 1/16" to much! Is this acceptable?
