Doing a Disc Brake upgrade on my GTO. While I'm not seriously considering rear discs in the first wave, I was wondering who has added them to their car. Wondering what the increased performance is, is it worth the money, etc. It appears the installation is relatively straightforward on a 8.2 rear.

I will be installing disc's on my car once I start doing the frame. I am probably going to use Wilwoods on the front and Baers on the back.

can anyone speak to the improvement in braking performance ? Is it worth the extra money on our old Goats/Birds ?

I had manual drums all the way around on my 68 goat and put power assist front disks on them. I am very happy with the performance. The car brakes like any other modern car with the same pedal effort.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
