Subject: Re: Stroker W's Date: Tue, 22 Aug 2000 17:28:41 -0700 My 77 1/2t 4WD tips the scales at 5800 lbs. My Bronco weighs somewhere around 5300- 5500 lbs the last time I checked, and I'm not a "big":^) boy. By the time you add a winch, bumpers, large tires, spare parts and tools (carried most of the time) and all of the extra stuff, it adds up fast. His Bronco is daily driven. It is set up for rockcrawling and general wheeling. Behind the Windsor is a built C4, Dana 20, 9" with a detroit, 44 with true trac, 36" Super Swampers. The last I heard, he swapped to a Trick Flow intake, and installed a EEC tuner ECM setup that will allow fine tuning of the parameters to keep the 423 happy. I think his race weight comes in around 5K lbs. Jason '69 Bronco 5.0 HO EFI, NP435 '96 F250 Ext Cab 4WD Powerstroke E4OD ----- Original Message ----- From: "wish" <wish ford-trucks.net>

Something to do with metal fatigue and cracking being reduced with a double flare vs single. Others might have me detained and technical comments though. George M in Fl.

<< have a 68 Ford/Mercury Camper Special 250 and am in the process of restoring the brakes to their 1968 glory. I am having an issue with the type of flaring used where it hooks into the wheel cylinders. The replacement wheel cylinders have fittings for a double flare type of connection, ie-flares out then back in at the end. The lines that are on the truck have a single flare setup (flares out on the end like a trumpet), as did the wheel cylinders I took off. I have been told that this double flare connection was just used on older vehicles. So my question is, which type of flaring was originally used on this year of truck? And since I don't want to have to replace the lines, can I use the wheel cylinders off of a mid 70's Ford, as these appear to have the proper seat for the single flare? >> ------------------------------ From: GMontgo930 aol.com

<< Thanks for the suggestions. So far in my research I've found the following: Thorley - nothing Hedman - Street #89210 Elite #89218 JBA - nothing Sanderson - nothing Gibson - nothing Hooker - #6832 Dynomax - Cyclone and Blackjack are now Dynomax but I can't find an application guide for their headers. Flowtech - Painted #12520 - Ceramic #32520 Edelbrock - nothing So it seems as if there are only three (maybe four if Dynomax has something) manufacturers that make headers for the 351M/400 for a '78 Bronco. That would seem to be an un-tapped market given the number of Bronco's I see running around of that vintage. Oh well. Thanks for the help guys. Now I just have to see where I can buy these things... :-) >> I'd stay away from teh Flowtech's. I got a set on mine, and Im not crazy about the fit, quality (holes in the welds NEW!), or the funky path needed on the Dr side pipe.

Besides, I cant go puttin money into it, if Im tryin to put Tweety together at the same time. Only $$ the stang gets is routine lubes, and maybe an airfreshener on occasion.
