Right stuff detailing. This is the same kits that all the suppliers sell as factory replacement or disc upgrade. I have put them on a Chevelle and two Camaros. Awesome complete kits with clear instructions.

CCP, MP Brakes, Rick's first gen, Year One, Classic Industries, The Paddock

There are literally almost 100 different QUALITY sources. Add in the import crap suppliers and you probably have well over 100 sources

rayban,

I used front disk brakes from a conversion kit as a temporary fix while I had my original 4 piston calipers rebuilt.

You will be required to go to 15" rims as they are NOT designed to fit the original 14" rims.
(I learned that lesson the hard [expensive] way.)

Not always so, stock conversion kit from Right stuff detailing, btw supplies Ricks, NPD, Matts classic bowties, etc, etc, will work with stock 14 inch rims. See mine with 14x7 steelies and disc conversion.

Good to know, dynarider. I must have been dealing with the wrong sources.
