ok hearne.

what do you suggest? if i cant find these 94-95 brackets and run the electric 16" fan as a puller

or buy the 79-93 fox serp kit and run a flex fan?

problem is i dont know what balancer to use, with either one of them. im going to start to call some yards around here to hopefully find them. HOPE.

The 79-93 Stang FEAD is no shorter than what you're trying to cobble together. I suggest finding either a 94-95 Stang FEAD (which was used first on the 88-93 T-Bird/Cougar 5.0) Or a 96-2001 Explorer/Mountaineer 5.0 FEAD. Then get a 28 oz aftermarket balancer to fit either application. They ARE out there to be had, both the balancer (these would have been manufactured for stroker 5.0's in these cars of which 99% were balanced to 28 oz) and FEAD.

yea i gotcha. im just steadily trying to track down the brackets man. they aren't hard to come by, its just they want a fortune for them everywhere. i understand why also, it just sucks lol.now the 96-01 explo fead saves just as much room? but my tuff stuff alt wont fit it? i think we talked about trying to run that set and thats why i didnt look for them. any 4 bolt 28oz balancer for the 94-95 mustang fead?
