Not running hydroboost?

Anyone not running a PS pump?

I'm looking for a delete for the PS pump or an solution.

I've tried Summit, Modular Mustang and searched the net.

Has anyone tried just removing it and getting a shorter belt? Any interference?

Thanks.

4.6 DOHC SC "03"

Also tried Kar Krafters. Although they do make a 4.6 PS delete, it won't fit the 03-04 Cobra so they say.

I tought about it but decided against it, this engine weighs a lot more than the aluminum kind, remember that.
I guess you could use the Flaming River steering rack and non-powered brakes?
Let us know how that feels

A friend of mine is a very good machinist & made an A/C eliminator bracket for my 2000 DOHC. He also made several other for other forum members. You can contact him directly at BGenewich@aol.com

Sergio, have you pushed it hard on a track yet? How's the steering? Do you have a Bias valve in line? Twitchy?

Also, anyone, that is manual steering, how is it, to hard?

Power guys, how is it? bias valve? Twitchy?

Thanks, I guess I haven't made up my mind yet???

Lampo -

I have not driven mine yet, but I did drive my friend's 427 MKIII. It is a bit heavy at low speeds, but fine once you're under way. I believe that he's runing 1/8 front toe in which may make it a bit heavier. Tracks great with better off center rsponse than my Z3. I should add that at 6'1", 170 lbs and in my mid 50's I'll never be confused with Charles Atlas.
