Good morning,

Jumping in here. The Ford 9" is a gorilla strong, very heavy duty piece found
in FULL size cars with major torque engines. I doubt (differntiating from true
knowlege.) that this piece will be found in any car of the Capri size. These
beasts were put under 427/429 powered Thunderbirds, full size wagons and 
galaxies.
They found their way into a few K code Mustangs, but nothing smaller.

Generaly an inappropriate piece for all but the most unusual LBC.

Cheers,

Ken (I've got one in my attic.) Boetzer
