    Got a parts list for the thing required to complete the ducting? I hope to get my SVO on the track and I like this.

    That was a long time ago.

    This looks close to the backing plates and hose kit

    One of the things to consider is that the 96 and newer spindles with the straight arm are much easier to add ducting to. It is a challenge to add it to the 94-95 spindle.

    Note that brake cooling ducts are not especially suitable for street cars. Brakes will remain too cold for most operations (unless you use really soft pads) and all the oils/water/dirt/rocks/exhaust mess from the roadways will end up all over your rotors. YMMV.

    Pegasus Racing is the kit I have with the 96 spindles on the 1C. It included the backing plate and hose. I got my 2 piece hat and rotor from Todd at TCE. I just swapped out my calipers and turned down the rotors to 1.1 inch. I was using a 1.25 inch rotor with a corvette C5 caliper. The C5 caliper has larger pistons and accepted the thicker rotor. It uses the same pad and brake line as the Cobra though.

    Hmmmmmm.... Good point... If I use the Fog Lamp opening, maybe I can find a way to hold the Fog Light Covers on while driving on the street.....

    Just a thought.... Or maybe a brain fart, I dunno......

    Shucks - I can install parts and Chalks can hold my beer.

    Ahh, my red car's front suspension stuff is a varied assortment of stuff.

    Spindles are 96 sn95
    Brakes are 13" Cobra sn95
    k-frame is a MM tubular for Fox for 5.0 (versus the Fox for a 4.6 k-frame)
    KONI's are the D/A models for a Fox
    steering rack is the standard HP Ford rack, 2.5T ltl, with MM's solid mounts
    Front a-arms are MM's standard offset tubular
    C/O kit is MM for KONI
    Springs are <forgot name - it's on the box somewhere> at 350 Lb/in
    tie rod ends are MM's bump steer kit for Fox, iirc, with the spindle arms drilled for a 5/8" bolt
    anti-roll (sway) bar in front is a stock SVO that's been gloss black PC'd
    Upper CC plates are Steeda Fox

    What else?

    When I get my lift, I can install parts too, I guess.

    And you know that if you let Chalky hold your beer, you're gonna get it back empty...

    Front use 8742-1121 Sport Double-Adjustable.
    Rear use 8042-1134 Sport Double-Adjustable.

    Curious that KONI considers all DA struts/shocks to be race-only items and only warranties them for 90 days.

    I bought the EradiSpeed+ rotors through a company in Canada that had them listed on their website for $531.10/US (pair) plus $23.75/US shipping with no sales tax. USA prices were in the $700/pair range then, plus shipping (Baer in is Phoenix, about 130 miles up the road from me).

    Today they're priced about $475/US each ($950/pair!). Which is not too bad for two piece rotors as the Brembo's for the front of the EVO list for ~$800 each.

    What do you have in the rear?
    MM's lower a-arms without spring perches, with anti-sway bar mounts
    Upper rear arms are Ford Motorsports replacments that I got like 20 years ago that sat in a box (as lots of parts have over the decades)
    Stock upper arm rubber bushings in the diff housing
    Ford 8.8 rear housing with (currently) 4.10 gears.
    Torsen differential
    KONI DA shocks
    MM rear KONI C/O kit and 200 #/in springs
    I alternate between the stock SVO rear anti-sway bar and the larger GT one (both PC'd gloss black) for when I have an urgent need to non power-related oversteer (like under braking at an auto-x)
    Stock SVO rear calipers and brakes (painted red and black)

    That's all I can recall just now.
