not sure what the caliper baskets are, but it was the rear F body discs I was talking about.  They are a direct bolt on to 10 & 12 bolt axles without any modifications.  I'll be doing this upgrade to my 70 when I eventually get another 12 bolt and rebuild it, then I'll be doing the B-Body 12" rotor upgrade also.

Hey Tom,

 Reason I was wondering is cause I have access to all those parts wholesale. LOL
Called my local salvage yard that we do alot of business with and I could buy those calipers for about 60 dollars each and I can get the rotors brand new aftermarket for about 45 dollars each. called my GM dealer and brand new GM calipers were 110 dollars for one side and 130 for the other, dont know why one was higher than the other. I think the baskets for the calipers were like 30 bucks each. would like to see what kinda brackets he was talking about though.
