Anyway to get a tripminder in a p71 without converting to digital dash? can you adapt a older box one to work in a newer one?

Give a man a fish and he will be fed for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will promptly forget that he once did not know, and proceed to call anyone who asks, a n00b and flame them on the boards for being stupid. -
If you can make the older one fit somewhere... it should work... but what year are we trying to make it work in? It's rather set for a 5.0L engine and probably won't do well with input from the 4.6L depending on how they actually calculate stuff.

It's not set for a 5.0 engine. It's set for any Ford vehicle computer that has an output wire for DOL (or fuel flow). I have a tripminder in my mom's 94 Crown Victoria, it's pretty damn accurate. If your computer has the wire, then it'll work. You just gotta find a place for it.Comment

ah.... good to know... though now that I think of it... I think I knew that already.
