I got the heater controls all set to run the vintage air GEN IV. I took two top halves hooked them together, after flipping the lever, welding the cable bracket so it went the opposite way .Then took the cable pins off the heat defrost lever drilled holes in temp levers and pressed them in.

I needed a five pin fan switch to use Vintage Air's mustang conversion circuit board. I bought one off ebay that was listed for our trucks the lever on the switch was about 1/2" too long so I redrilled the holes in the bracket and moved it back.

So in the end all this will be hidden behind and the controls will look stock. Except now I really want to re-letter the face plate.

Got the exhaust worked out today. It's all stainless.Image pipe on the left is what i started with four of them to make the s turn on the right. Comes off the stock 2013 mustang h pipe. I needed to turn out to miss the driveshaft. I wanted to leave the h-pipe stock so if I want to switch to an x pipe it would just bolt in.

this is completed. don't know what I did with pic of it on truck I'll have to upload it again.

Looking good. I just ended up with 3/4 of a coil out of mine after the first go round cutting 1 1/2. 1 should get u close depending on the springs you have.

Adapters came in to turn the bump o ring fittings on hydro booster to -06 an fittings. I also found a guy that makes a nice -06 an fitting that fits the crown vic rack. Picked up a nascar power steering reservoir.

Give us more info on the hydroboost mount and connection to the pedal. I have a 2000GT hydroboost setup I intend to adapt to my truck.

I have pic somewhere I'll look. I just used the mount from the super duty. I rotated the hydroboost 180* to clear the coyote. I think two or three of the super duty bolt holes lined up. The push rod was a little long so I cut the top of the brake pedal off a 98 cobra and welded it to the stock f-100 pedal.
