Anybody order or use this kit? I've heard good things about SSBC. How easy is this so called bolt on kit? What would I need that this package does not include? Thanks for answering all my questions. Jay

I used their kit on my 70 Road Runner. Overall I liked the kit and it installed very easy. It came with everything that I needed.

I have used the kit as both manual brakes and power brakes. The manual brakes worked perfectly with the supplied master cylinder and gave me no problems.

The power brakes I had some trouble with. The booster (single diaphram) and master cylinder that it came with; I could not get them to work well at all. Panic stopping was out of the question. So I took an original dual diaphram disc brake booster for a 70 road runner and a 15/16" disc brake master cylinder and then everything worked great!

The booster and master cylinder that comes from SSBC is from a late 70's corvette and for whatever reason I could not get them to work well at all. Hope this helps! - Brian

Jay,

I purchased the SSBC front disc brake kit for my '71 Dart GT ($830 to my door from Mancini). It is a complete bolt on ordeal. Everything fit as described. I would/will buy from SSBC again if/when needed.
Good Luck!!
