No. The Pantera is set up with a thinner than normal 11" disc. If you install 
a std Mustang disc which is thicker, you'll likely have to completely 
readjust the clutch system- the slave cylinder bellcrank AND slave rod length, pedal 
position etc. It can be done but you have to know what adjustments are 
possible and where they are. I'd ask your vendor what they sell and how it works as a 
drop-in. Any savings on a cheap disc probably will be eaten up trying to 
figure out what to do to make it work. And god-forbid you'd try adding a generic 
clutch pressure plate, which always comes with centrifugal bob-weights that 
will remachine the inside of your bell housing the first time you fire up. Good 
luck- J Deryke
