Thanks for the quick response. Sorry I sounded so dumb. Thanks to everyone who helped me with my questions. I really appreciate the help.
I will let everyone know how it turns out. Hopefully it will be completed in plenty of time to get some good summer cruising in.

Disk brakes did not come on a 65 Chevelle but 69 Camaro are the same so if you are talking to a regular parts house they will not find a listing for your car. Right Stuff of course understands this so order the kit for your car. Sorry about the confushion.

Why would I get Camaro spindles for a Chevelle? I checked their website and their disc brake conversion kits are the same price.

If you are going all out get the tall spindles and tubular control arms.

I have a 65 Chevelle and it currently has a 350 with a powerglide. Everything is getting tired. I want to overhaul and stroke the engine by a local engine builder. Plans are to do the rebuild this summer because he builds alot of racing engines and winter is his busy time. He said it will have between 425 to 450 horsepower. I want to put in a 700R4 transmission for better highway cruising. I have looked at many different transmission companies. Has anyone ever used Monster transmission? They seem to have decent prices and kits to complete the conversion. I would also like to upgrade to front disc brakes. Brakes really confuse me. I see a really big range of prices. I do not need the high end brakes just better than drums can offer. I am also thinking about a March serpentine belt system. Of course, next comes the rear end rebuild with a posi-unit. Any suggestions on gear ratio? Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated, Russ Hotmail is redefining busy with tools for the New Busy. Get more from your inbox. Sign up now.
