4 cylinder to 5.0 conversion

saleen243 · 01-06-2002, 04:03 PM

I am in the middle of my conversion. Everything is going fine! Is there any tricks to the brake lines or should I just switch them out completely??? Is there anything else to watch out for while doing this conversion!!!

Brake lines? Huh, I just ran my stock lines, same size, I did up grade the front brakes and rear to a disc brake conversion.

Send me an email if you run into any snags, I'm on my third conversion, maybe I can help. These 4 cylinder cars are cheap and they for the most aprt are in better shape then the 5.0 counter parts..

Mac..
