This disc brake conversion uses 11-3/4" x 1.25 thick rotors and Wilwoods big 6-piston Superlite Caliper. Mounts directly to Dodge, Chrysler, Plymouth B or E- body drum brake spindles and uses 11-3/4" diameter rotors. Includes bearings, seals, wheel studs, mounting brackets, rotor adapters, and hubs. Other options include 4-piston Superlite or four piston Narrow Mount Dynalite Calipers, light weight master cylinder, proportioning valve, and residual valve.

Nice caliper, but the only thing I dont like is the alum hub with no real center register. I'm not sure how you are supposed to make hub centric wheels with that..
Most custom wheel makers can now machine the register for a wilwood hub.

Be careful with those. Even quality drilled rotors are known to crack between the holes. If the car isn't raced/inspected regularly, we suggest to stick with solid rotors.

I see those every week at the local circle track. Seen them crack too, but under racing conditions. I feel your "passion" I have the same issues, always looking to loose weight on the car, but sometimes race car parts are best left on race cars? Brakes on the street is no place to ride the fine line IMO. Too much is at stake. IMO same with the aluminum hubs.... great on a drag car but no way I would ever run them on the street. But again that's just my opinion, and I'm no "expert" ?

yeah i was joking when i posted the scalloped rotor....i know those fail..but i am liking the drilled...i think those would do fine for my driving style....and if crack..the rotors are pretty affordable in this size....

Will that work with A-body spindles Andy?
Yes, the Wilwood adapters work with any spindle that accepts an 11.75 rotor. A/B/E/FMJ knuckles will all work.
