With decently thick used factory rotors, one can usually do this swap with factory mid '68-70 Bonneville-Excutive-Catalina single piston disc brakes for under $500-550. Several years ago, could do it for under $350, but most today, are having to get the brake boosters rebuilt & having to pay more for thick rotor used changeovers.

The disc spindles are same for '67-70 big Pontiacs. Caliper brackets should be different between 4 piston & single piston caliper. Good place to find needed parts is on Bonne & Exec wagons built mid '68 through '70. '67 & early '68 set-ups will use 4 piston disc brakes...expensive to rebuild & calipers can often leak even after being sleeved & rebuilt. BTW, late '60's through '70 model BIG Old, Buick, & Chevy set-up are all different & different from each other, in other words, no luck swapping on other divisional spindles & rotors. Good luck.

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.
