On the breaks, you have to think that the MC splits the pressure to about 75/25 or something like that. So the front is holding the wheels stoped, but the back isn't held a whole lot so it will still spin. This is why you hardly ever have to change your rear breaks.
Just bought me some modular 2 1/2"drop ones. I think it said something about bigger bearing too. Your right about the 1 .5" part.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up

What??
The vette won't smoke 'em with out holding the brake?

Are the modular spindles 1.5" per side or overall?

Sounds like each side?. They had a tech link on the cpp site.

It will burn pretty good, but it won't smoke that much. Got to get the tires hot. This is with the traction control off. With it on it will hardly burn the tire, and launch really good.

I am pretty sure the modular drop spindles also let you have different brake caliper and rotor options.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up

I'm here, and I'm listening. Your right though. I'm my worse thread jacker. I am really busy right now and my wife and I are going to Cancun soon. It's our 40th wedding anniversary. I wish there was more time in the day to work on my truck.

Thanks. I wish we had more sun. We drank a lot though.
Funny but I never got high. All inclusive drinks are watered down. Looking at all the boobies was driving me crazy. People were still in the pool. Even when it was poring rain.
