Rumor has it that the Thunderbird PS rack is more tolerant of higher pump output pressure than the old Mustang II racks. I decided to risk it.

No Fcks Given.

Hmmm, mine is a Flaming River rack manufactured by them, so no actual Ford parts in it, I don't think. However Flaming River told me it likes the same sort of pressure levels that the Ford rack does. I've just read that with pressure in the middle it's not very good hydroboost and twitchy steering. Higher pressures fix brakes but make the steering twitchier, and lesser pressure fixes steering and makes brakes less boosted.

Anyway, sounds to me like something that would be a good thing to use.
