73-87 Big brakes
I was wondering if anyone makes big brakes for these years.Something like 13 inch rotors or bigger 4 or 6 piston calipers front and back.

Re: 73-87 Big brakes
Stock or dropped spindles? Look at SSBC or CPP as the two "bolt on" options.

Re: 73-87 Big brakes
McGaughy's also has a nice setup. I am working on a way to put C5 fronts on for cheap, just haven't had time to fool with it lately...

Re: 73-87 Big brakes
Got any info on McGaughy's set up? KORE-3 has the rears but nothing for the front unless i change spindles on it.

Re: 73-87 Big brakes
KORE-3's set up allows you to modify your own spindles vs. paying for another set (unless something has changed).

Re: 73-87 Big brakes
Their 2-piston kits are pricy..... I bet their 6-piston set-up won't be one of those better 'bang for the buck' purchases.
