Hi all, thanks for all the welcomes as I joined this site. Sorry to put you all through this question. I am sure its been asked a million times... I was thinking of installing disc brakes on my car (70 sport satellite, 383/727) at some point. The car currently has 4 wheel drum brakes. Power assisted front drums. I have a few questions:
What donor cars are a direct geometrically speaking replacement? A bodies from 73-76, B bodies from 68-73? and all E-bodies?
Also, What size rear drums do you think would be on this car? Probably 10"?
Lastly, if I get a disc brake setup...should it be the same size as the A-body rotors? I think in 73-76 they were 10 3/4" dia??...Not sure what the stock B-body size was.
I am looking to make the disc's appear stock so I want what is correct for my year.
Thanks guys!
