The H-pipe will fit if you have a floor shifter. If you've got the column shifter you have to do some creative beating with a hammer.

My '85 V6 T-Bird had the single hump member. My 88 5.0 Cougar, 87 Sport and 88 5.0 'Bird all had the double.

I had some interference with the rear s and the underbody. Makes it hang down a little farther than I'd like ( speedbumps).
Also had to bend the mounting "horn" a bit to get it to slide into the rubber bushing.
Then there's lengthening the O2 wires, bending the motor mount tab for header clearance, changing the smog pump's air injection tubing, new header bolts, modifiying the column linkage, and so on and so on.....
Death awaits you all with nasty, big, pointy teeth.

i checked and it was a double hump, the hump on the right seemed to be a lil higher but there was indeed two humps, so :D so looks like it's time to just slap on the stang headers and do the exhaust :)
