[QUOTE="Mustang5L5, post: 16339856, member: 38517"] Problem is I can't find accurate info as to what bore size goes to what year and brake setup. Plenty of info on the vaccum boosted setups, but for hydroboost the info just isn't available. I also see two sizes listed. A 1" bore, and a 1 1/16" bore. I *think* the GT with the larger front calipers (larger by way of dual 44.5mm pistons) used the 1 1/16" bore, and the cobra used the 1" bore. Unconfirmed though. SO really this is step one to ID years and bore sizes to what brake combo. If that is the case, I would swap the cobra 1" to the 1 1/16" with the ATS and 43mm rear calipers. How easy is that to do? Unknown. Ford has a habit of swapping around fitting sizes to prevent MC mixup on the factory line. May not be a direct swap without adapters of some sort. This is uncharted territory really. Someone's gotta be the first to try it and figure out what works and what doesn't. Seems like we are still brainstorming ideas to figure out a good, [b][i][font=Verdana]safe[/font][/i][/b] combo of parts to use here. But for the vaccum boosted guys (94-95 cobra and fox guys), I think the ATS fronts, 43mm rears and a 94-95 1 1/16" bore MC is the combo to use and what I will be trying out on my car. [/QUOTE]
