It will need Chevelle/Nova/Camaro rotors and calipers, or you can buy there complete Overpriced kits with ALL the parts in it. Those same people should have the Booster kit and new dual chamber MC to go with it. Several places have the kits, check and buy/order catalogs from several vendors, some on-line! You rodder/hacker you!  :p

There is a bearing spacer in the kit, you have to drive on the spindle first. I got an early kit and had a H*** of a time driving on the spacer. There have been fellas noting this and cool the spacers (or is it warm) to expand and go on easier. Maybe new kits are diff now. Several more company's making them. The caliper brackets are crude, cut from 3/8" steel or so and could be made with a pattern maybe. Some places sell seperate parts for the kit and you can buy what you want. Check vendors, can't remember which one does that. Some are brake vendors only. Seems like Norhwest Pick-ups or something like that, has the parts. They have a great catalog and parts for rods or standard. Links are on this site's main page.

You should be able to get early 70-77?? Camaro rotors, calipers and hoses at your local parts place and save some money. Same for booster & m/c, if you can't fab the bracket, then buy & install bracket and get your booster & m/c at your parts house. Should save you some $ | | |
