So while the site was down I decided it was time to go 5-lug but do it right the first time so I installed Cobra brakes all around. Now I'm stuck on how to make a 94/95 Cobra brake booster and master cylinder work. I can see I'm going to have to drill some holes to make the new booster stud pattern fit. Does everything else just go back on like normal with the lines? Do I still use the stock brass fitting that was under the stock master cylinder or do I have to swap that out too? I already hooked up all my brakes I just need to get this part finished to be done. Thanks for the help. I can post pictures later if you guys don't know what I'm talking about but I'm sure y'all are more knowledgeable about brakes than I am.

I have the same brake setup on my notch. You will need to buy the brake lines maximum motorsports sells for the master cylinder swap ( about $40). You will also need to gut your stock porportioning valve ( just take small spring out the little block you mentioned). You need a aftermarket porporting valve to be able to adjust pressure to front/rear brakes.

Thanks for the info. Are you talking about these lines? http://www.maximummotorsports.com/Master-Cylinder-Installation-Kit-1994-95-Cobra-master-cylinder-in-1980-86-Mustang-P1273.aspx
I already installed the proportioning valve I just don't really know how to adjust it to the right setting but I'm sure I can figure it out. Would I need to buy that $17 plug for the stock proportioning valve?
