OK guys, first off, thanks for all the help and insight.. learning ALOT here...

Lil background - I have always wanted a 69-72, and teetered back and forth for YEARS.. I build custom motorcycles for a living, and business has kinda gotten in the way of play for the last ohhhhh 4 or 5 years

earlier this year, I decided we needed a new shop truck, so I went looking, and found my 70, a project in the works, semi-rat-rodd'd but in need of some work...

So one step at a time, and prolly about 2000 more stupid questions that may or may not have been answered previously....

So, back to the question at hand...

Ive just finished my new 383 and get her slot in, and running today, and was thinking that with over 600hp on the bottle, its time to seriously consider some better binders on the front end...

Previously the truck was converted to a 5 on 5 bolt patern and has the std looking calipers.

So I need some input here... I would like to fit at least some 2 piston calipers on 12 inch rotors (running 16inch steel wheels for now) 4 piston even better...

I looked online, but I am more looking for someone's direct experience with them, fit, finish, power, modulation, bang for the buck, etc...

Thanks in advance guys!
