We were contacted by a magazine a few years back wanting to know if we knew anything about that. I knew the Z16's used the larger drums and shoes of the Impala, but we were not sure if they used a custom backing plate or spindle or modded upper arm to use the Impala spindle.
The Z16 community is tight lipped about it - there are fakes running about and supposedly this is a way to sort them out.
