Re: Rear disc conversion, is it worth it?

personally i am running the wilwood 13" big brake kit on front and rear. 6 piston calipers in front and 4 rear with internal parking brake. also swapped in a 1"bore master cylinder and have an adjustable proportioning valve to play with my bias front to rear. I have to agree in different ways with a lot of the guys. Yes the front brakes do most of the braking for a vehicle. my kit was very pricy. there are definitely cheaper options out there. will you notice a difference if you do a disc brake swap, its entirely likely you will. the best answer to whether or not to do this is what do you want them for. I have my reasons besides looks for mine. and i can vouch that it brakes a lot faster than with drums.
