Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] FW: disc brake conversion
The cheapest way is to find a 1964-1972 chevelle, GTO, Cutlass in the
junkyard that had disc brakes, and pull it off. Preferably the single
piston kind.
I think the cutlass is the easier find in my opinion.
I got a set off ebarf for $290 in good shape (after shipping). They are off
of a '71 Cutlass
