Will the Mk VII calipers fit the '88 TC spindles? If not what mods do I need to do to make tham fit?
Yes they will bolt on. You are planning to change your M/C as well, right? The stocker will not have enough capacity to handle the larger bore calipers.
That's the plan. Either a Mk VII M/C or a Cobra.
The Mark VII doesn't have the same style master cylinder as our cars. THey have a Hydro Boost setup that runs off the P/S pump.
I guess Cobra it is then. :)
That fits better with the overall scheme of my plan anyway.
The only reason I know they are different is becasue I did the same thing. I went to change my master cylinder and started to take the one off my parts Lincoln and notice it was completly different. :hick:
I can try to get you the T/c master clyinder too if you want bud. I'll go ask today about it
Actually, it run uses a hydraulic pump, has no ties to the power steering pump, or any other system in the car.
Dont bother, its the same as the Mark VII
Indeed. I don't need to add another pump to the engine.
S'ok, 'cuz the TC and Mark have an electric pump built onto the M/C as part of the ABS system :hick:
So... I'd just have another drain on my alternator. Eh, that's ok.
Next they'll tell me it runs on AA batteries. :hick:
Actually, two 9 volts.
Batteries not included. Some assembly required.
Just my luck they'd go dead at the end of the quarter mile.
Not if you replace 'em every time the time changes :hick:
So if I move to Indiana, they'll last longer?
