Technically, no. Because their isn't one. Consinsus is that you need a dual solenoid setup because of the ABS system. So pretty much everyone has built their own with parts ordered separately.

RPM Outlet has a single solenoid kit on their web site. But most everyone I know suggest using a dual kit.

Hummm... Shouldn't be any different than any other brake system. One person pump the pedel, the other turn the schrader valve. When there is no more air, quit.

I spoke with RPM Outlet, they have sold a few hundred for the 05-06 stang so they say. Sure maybe $75-$100 more than getting the parts yourself but it's all there, all prebent, flared, ready to go. A see no reason why single solenoid system is not a good way to go. I will likely get their system. Anyone here use this one?

Once again to ask a newb question: what exactly is a line lock, and what are the benefits of putting it on my Mustang?

Basically A line lock allows you to do burns outs real easy and without killing your brakes. It locks the front brakes and lets the rear wheels spin freely. Therefore your not burning up your rotors and brakes when trying to do burn out. It's a real cool invention, but addictive, you'll go through tires like it's water. It's controlled by a little button you mount somewhere. Hit the buttom and Bam your good to go no more rear brakes. Hit it again, and turn the breaks back on.

I saw a guy at one of our meets that hooked up his line locks to his horn button. He had a separate toggle switch that would disable the horn and tie the line locks to the horn switch. When he wanted the front brakes locked, he would simply hold down the horn with his thumb and let go when he was ready. After he was done racing, he would flip the toggle switch and the horn worked as normal. I thought this was a really cool application.
