I mean by getting napa parts rather than some hot rod over priced stuff?
I have drums now but thought if parts were easy to get I would try to do disc if there was not a huge expense involved.

with one from a 78 Cadillac. I used power discs from an early 70's Monte Carlo and booster, master cylinder and pedal assembly from a 70 Chevelle. The whole rear was @ $250. and the discs were another $100.I already had the booster, master cylinder, et al. The rear fit perfectly on my stock 52 AD frame. Everything works great. | | |
