well aero is the BOMB, the lines will be here today, he pulled them and sent them without telling me! so now i got to get the money out to him. Hopefully tomorrow once i get the tool to remove the fittings(i need someone to tell me what its called) they will be in and the car running correctly! I cant wait to be able to let the car run for more then a little while!

Good luck.take your time.Sometimes those lines are a little tricky,and stubborn after all these years.Clean the fittings where the lines connect really good first to keep an  from potentially getting in the lines.

well since the nylon part was cut off the lines, they have to be spliced in. The lines are different, but they fit in where my old ones were they WILL work, with a little work. went out and spent the money and bought a quick disconnect tool set, and a double flareing tool, and ONE fitting. Stupid pepboys never has everything i need, they said the other should be in tomorrow, so im gonna go get it and pray it doesnt rain. My goal is getting it running before i leave, mostly cause my dad is gonna look at it, and i REALLY wanna go for a quick spin before i go, just to feel how much more the mustang pulls over the lincoln. Some guy in mass is giving me a power steering rack from his car for free, he says the weighing on it is off, so its really responsive. I dont care, its money im saving. I thank everyone thats helped me along this far, if it wasnt for the support of everyone on hear, ford vs chevy, and lincolns on line, i think i would have sold her by now!
and aero hope you got the money i just rounded up from 38.15 and sent you 40. Only cause you keep to your promise and got me the lines, and sent them before i payed. YOU ROCK man!

Take out the subs and read the back, serial or product number and google it. That will tell you what wattage you should run. Get her going man.
