Sounds like to me that the driver side piston in the brake caliper is not disengaging, thus in nomal driving there would be a pull to the left and when the other side engages no more pull I hope this helps.....

Be sure your modifications are compatible with the on board computer!

So you don't know how big the manafold is and you don't what size I can put on it without worring about the computer.

Maybe try some websites or forums specifically for MN12 T-Birds and 4.6 V8's.
A lot of people mod these motors and would probably know what would work.

My cars headlights come on and off at random for no reason when i have the switch pulled out anyone know why this happens. My guess is some sort of relay of flasher that controls the headlights or its the switch. its not the wiring i don't think because i have carefully looked it over i also notice that my turn signal indicators in the dash are always lit up when the headlights are on sometimes its more light up than others or one side is brighter but not when they are off. very strange i fix tons of cars all the time but this one is odd. There was someone else that had the same problem on here so it must be a factory defective thing

i figured out mine and it was just THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH!

Wipers and turn signals are same switch. My guess would be the multi switch/ wiper and turn signal switch.
