Southwell's 1995 Lincoln Mark VIII This is the Adapter for the Willwood Master Cylinder. You can get the plans from the Tccoa how to guide, or e-mail me and I can give you the blueprint.Southwell's 1995 Lincoln Mark VIII

Southwell's 1995 Lincoln Mark VIII Here they are put together.

Southwell's 1995 Lincoln Mark VIIIHere are the two pieces installed through the firewall. I had to break out the Sawzall to "modify the strut tower to fit the M/C in there. this exact piece fits perfect on the thunderbirds, but the AirBag equipped Marks have a different Tower.

Southwell's 1995 Lincoln Mark VIII Here is the part from an inside view. You can also see the steel Coplink (also specified in the how-to article). I Ran into another problem completely different from the T-birds and Cougars. The PCM is mounted EXACTLY where the clutch pedal goes. so I had to COMPLETELY rewire the car from the front harness back. Involving 57 wires, 114 different solder connections, LOTS of Heatshrink tubing, and wire loom. Next page for those details.

Nice deal buddy, i beat up on a 96 t-bird, bought a 94 t-bird, just picked up a 97 Mark Viii and its unbelievably better in almost every way. Rocks sorta side to side on rough roads. Minor down side to air ride with tight sway bars. I always wanted to go 5 or 6 spd just because its more fun. Never had the extra space or ride until now to do so. If ur T-45 is for sale let me know.
