Rear disc options

What kind of options do I have to convert my 68 to rear discs? I'm looking into the Camaro caliper brackets from CaptainFab, but what other options do I have?

Is it really a worthy investment to convert to rear discs?

The rear disc kit CPP offers uses 1st Gen Cadillac Seville 5 lug rotors and calipers. If you can make your own brackets the other stuff is available from any auto parts store. If not, CPP rear brake kit works well.

Re: Rear disc options

Thanks for the responses and info. I think I'll just replace my brake shoes for $23 for now.
