Repaint at least on fender correct?

I'm pretty sure there is a build thread on this particular Mark VIII on LOD.

Eddie, I received your email and responsed, as I am the guy you sold he adapter to. Kerrigan, Unfortunately I'm not able to locate the adapter ever since I've moved. It wouldn't be of use to you though because it doesn't work on the gen 2s. I bought it because I was told it worked for the...

I stand corrected. For some reason I thought stock size was 235/60/16 (making it 27.1), but just realized it's actually 225/60/16 (making it 26.7) Sorry for the incorrect info James Y.

That's the setup that I run without any issues. My fronts are 18x9 with a 36mm offset, but my offset is closer to 50 in the rear. The rim started off as 18x9/36mm offset but was widened which obviously changed the offset. I know the fronts would absolutely work, but to be honest I'm not...

If it's not too late I'd change that to a 255/45/18 for the front and 285/40/18 for the rear... those are the best match to stock diameter.

Definitely need "c" heads for an Eaton... don't forget about a different front timing cover, pulley bridge, pullies, lower intake, intercooler, fuel fittings, moving the alternator, etc... I'm sure I'm leaving things out, but you get my drift, it's not as cut and paste as bolting it on top.

:yuck::yuck::yuck::yuck:

If I remember right, the stock mark viii fan has a higher cfm than 3000 (I could be off on that though). Hope everything works out for ya. :bestwishe

RobbVII, What's the tint percentage on your windows?

Nothing wrong with a clean opal/opalescent. :rolleyes:

S I'm not loaded with tons of money, but I've got too much invested in this car to start skimping on parts now. The kit that 98lincmk7lsc provides looks like a quality product and I like how he goes the extra step and solders on true plug and play connectors, especially since I'm not too...

To the OP, was this kit that you bought and installed a plug and play or did you have to make new adapters? Also, does anyone know what brand 98lincmk7lsc uses in his kit? I like the fact that it's a true plug and play, but after reading this thread I don't want DDM... and I think one of my...

Did you ever get the pictures or videos of the under side? Seems a little fishy that they started off very firm on the price then miraculously dropped the price by almost 2k... hope all works out for you.

Easy on those half shafts with the manual trans/4.10 combination. :burnout: Nice project by the way.

Looks clean from the initial pics, and surprisingly the rear window seal is in good shape. :W How's the interior and undercarriage?

Put down the sauce and slowly back away from the ancient thread... :slap:

You need a special tool to turn the piston while applying pressure to compress it. Some have claimed to use a big pair of channel locks... if you go this route, be careful that you don't mar/damage the piston.

The front brakes are pretty straight forward, just use a c-clamp to compress the calipers to allow room for the new brakes as they will be thicker. If you decide on changing the rears as well, then you will need one of those special tools to compress the rear calipers. Don't forget to open the...
