I already have the Bendix TitaniuMettalics in hand. Got them from RockAuto. They have the break-in material on them and look and feel very high quality. As to how they actually stop......we have yet to see.

All I could find for the rears were organics. I was hesitant to use better material on the front pads than on the rear shoes. But, as I said before, Cass at Dr Diff thought that with the large rear shoes that having organics on the rear would not be an issue. If there is some sort of issue with the rear brakes, I can go back and change the shoes out for something else or swap in different diameter wheel cylinders.

Remember, I don't have any real issues with the brakes on the car now. I just thought that while I have the car apart swapping engines, I would go ahead an replace the shoes and pads and upgrade where possible.

I am very surprised at the lack of better choices for these pads and shoes.

I will keep Rochester Clutch and Brake contact info. I had not heard of them and would have liked to have had their number earlier while I was searching.


Master, again and still
