I think that the kore3 stuff is real nice i got the rear e-brake setup and front kit for the c6 zo6 brakes aswell but for a 12-bolts looks cool too :cool:

Installed the parking brake assembly this weekend. What a great kit.

Parking brake cables will be here this week and that job will be done.

Nice brackets... i just dont like the drum in hat system, it always seem to sieze up on street cars, or not work when you need it to.. but on a PT car where everything is maintaines beyond reason :D i guess its fine...

That is the factory system on 4th gen F-bodies. I have never heard of a problem with them???? Maybe i need to look more:willy:

Scott-

Thanks for showing the install; I'm very interested.

What about the rear swaybar? Did you make that?

About $700, depending on options. I ordered a several brake lines from Tobin as well.

Im going to put a 9 inch in my Camaro and yesterday was given a complete set of C6 calipers . What 9 inch housing should I look for ,is one better than the other???

I have the Torino style big bearing housing ends and that's what I'd recommend. Its 2.5" housing face to axle flange gives enough room for the DIH parking brake.

Here's what Tobin at KORE told me about his brackets and Ford housings:

Quote:

As far as applications go, the kit is only compatible with the Big-Bearing Torino style housing and soon to be the Small-Bearing housing as well. The old style Big-Bearing housing with 1/2" T-bolts will probably not happen due to the very short brake offset dimension of 2.36"...it's causing interference issues between components that we may not be able to get around without excessive tweaking.
