Title: Shaving down AC bracket for hood clearance?
Post by: redneck_bill on April 26, 2005, 08:55:38 PM
I was considering putting a turbo coupe hood on my 5.0 T-Bird. The Cool Cats site said I'd have to "shave down" the A/C bracket so the hood would clear. Has anyone done this or know where to start?
