Years ago I put disc brakes on my Stage 1 since I wanted it to stop better at the end of the quarter mile. I tossed the old set-up (!!!) and I'm thinking since I don't really race it anymore I'd like to put it back the way it came. Anyone have a complete set-up? These were the big finned drums, not the Skylark base set-up. 69 big block models are probably the same. Who's got a parts car or these sitting on the shelf gathering dust? JKC
brakes i have a complete set up in my 70 skylark and also on my 68 sportwagon. the wagon brakes are alum. haven't check the skylark though. they are still on the car....mike
drums The ones I need ARE aluminum so maybe you have the right ones. Let me know, maybe a photo would be helpful. Don't know if 68 S/W would be the same or not. Possibly. Thanks! JKC
The GS big blocks from 67 - 70 used the aluminum drums as std. equip. (discs optional). As did the 67 to 69 Sportwagons. The 70 A body wagons used discs as did the 71 & 72 GS big blocks.
I have ones off my 72. They are not AL.. If you run out of options, you can have them cheap, spindels, everything. The shoes are new and the whole set-up only has 42k on it. Just pay for shipping and a little something for my trouble of boxing that stuff, it is bulky.
I have drums from a 67 GS400 that are Aluminum Are these the same drums? I will be going to the 4 piston disc set for the coolness factor! :bglasses:
if i had the setup to switch my 70 gs vert to discs, id let you have my drum setup. ive never checked to see if there aluminum or not, im sure there the originals though.
