He seems to have well-researched nice ideas and nice products as well.

The brackets arrived Thursday. Thanks Jim!

Anyone know if the Wilwood pro-street kit will fit these brackets also? Will they clear a 15x4 front wheel? Jegs Kit # 950-140-2115-B Summit kit #WIL-140-2115B

--> Jegs <--

--> Summit <--

Larger 12.19" rotor vs. 11.44" for the drag kit.
.810" rotor thickness vs. .35 thick for the drag kit. Sounds a bit more street friendly.

If no one has tried them, looks like I'll have to be the guinea pig.

EDIT: Nevermind - Adapting to the bigger rotor will throw off the caliper holes in the custom brake brackets. Right? Unless.... Jim can you have them made with the proper adjustment in diameter?

Note: This is listed as a drag race only kit for ford 9" big bearing rear. I think Tom S. knows of a better rotor/pad combo for street.
After that,you'll need the brackets,some shims and safety wire. Also use a proportioning valve if using rear drums. I have the assembly guide Ric sent me if anyone needs help. This winter, I'm installing a 9" Ford rear, with disc brakes. WOW! 4-wheel discs on my '63 Pontiac!

What is the the better street combo setup? This won't be a daily driver but will be out and about when I am not on my motorcycle.

My 63 probably been down the strip 150+ times. Gets stopped from 116-118 mph. Just have the standard wildwood setup. Never changed pads and even drive on street with the stock single master cylinder. Made my own brackets but got to be the same as Jims.
