I converted my 65 Belvedere to disc brakes using parts from a 75 Valiant. Recently I decided to overhaul the front end and decided it was easier to buy reman calipers than rebuild mine. I wasn't paying attention when I ordered the parts and the dang reman calipers came with the phenolic pistons. Back in the 70's 80's, you were crazy to use them because they were prone to sticking and freezing up. Does anyone know if this has changed now that it is the 'future'?
This is a drag/street car so I really don't want to invite brake troubles.
