Title: ABS to Vac using the M/C with the Plastic res
Post by: bigbada1 on August 26, 2010, 02:02:07 PM
Just as the title states everything that I have read utlizes the M/C with the cast res. Has anyone here actually used the M/C with the plastic res? The reason I ask is the M/C with the plastic res already has 3 ports. Also how do you tell what the boor size is on a M/C??

you look at the back of it where the rod sits...

why do you need 3 ports? with the right combo valve you will not need the 3rd one

The reason I am asking is I already have the Mustang Booster and M/C. I would like to use this to replace the ABS that is currently in the TC and was just wandering if the ABS system utlizes the 3 ports could I use the Mustange M/C?

looks like it, I just checked my spare tevs unit the rear and one front run to the combo valve, the other lie is direct to the caliper

when I did my swap I used the SVO M/C with a little plumbing and some fittings and all has been well and the stopping power is much better than the ABS....
