    You will have to do the 3-2 port conversion. Several places sell a kit -Maximum Motorsports being one - or you can piece one together from fittings found in your hardware store or autoparts place.

    Be aware that the later model MC that you have uses metric threads and the stock MC in your '85 uses standard threads. You will have to adapt this also or bend new lines with the correct fitting on each end.

    There is a lot of information on the net on this upgrade but it is pointless (and will likely adversely affect your braking) unless you are putting rear disc brakes on - and larger front brakes - at the same time.


    The links that I had saved are not working right now. Here is a thread I found that has some information for you.

        No. Complete waste of your time and money. It is not an upgrade over what you already have. Save this step for when you convert to bigger brakes all around or go to rear disks. Then use the correct MC to go with your braking combination. Again, there is a ton of information out there on brake upgrades for fox body mustangs.
