Rotors

Going to change from a 4 lug to a 5 lug Rotor. I am using a pinto spindle now.What 5 lug will interchange and work with the pinto spindle. Want to go to a local parts for the parts. If anyone knows part numbers that would be good as well.

I think the Pinto, Mercury Bobcat and Mustangs all used the same spindles and rotors. What year?

The easiest and cheapest way is to have your spindles redrilled for a 5 bolt pattern. In fact a lot of the early MII kits did just that.

Heidts has a conversion kit:

You can also convert to Granada discs. Here is a link to a Hot Rod magazine article:
