Hey Mark, do you typically run the same brake pad for both street and track days?
If so which one? Thanks Quote:
|
If you need to use one pad use a HP1000 Ferodo material. It is a good mix of street and moderate track usage. If you are going to hit the track hard I have had great luck with Pagid pads. Brake pads, calipers and rotors are a personal choice. There are a lot of good companies and parts out there. I’m just going off my experience. There is not 100% right best answer, every application is a little different.

Thanks for the respose Mark.
I'm not finding anything for C6 Z06 from Ferodo except these..... Ferodo DS2500 Brake Pads - Padlets HP1000 possibly discontinued? |
Quote:
The DS2500 is a street plus moderate track pad. I used them on my C7 vette for a couple of track days, they worked OK. They were quiet on the street, but like all performance pads were more dusty than the OEM pads. If you're a newer track driver doing autoX or a couple of HPDE per year on street tires, the DS2500 may work OK. More experienced drivers running a car like the Z06 on multiple track days a year, and/or with stickier tires, typically swap to a specific track pad with matching rotors on track days. Like Mark said, it depends. You might look in the autoX and road racing section of the Corvette forum: https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...roadracing-23/ Lots of experience there. |

The extra connector is to add the missing sensor so you can do a Tech 2 ABS bleed. A Tech 2 ABS bleed is where you use a GM diagnostic tool to activate the valves in the ABS module to get the air out. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...b690b3b562.jpg Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
The car was repainted in the 1980s and had a ton of overspray in the door jams. Because the doors have never been off the car we just cleaned it up.

Mark, you mentioned the C6 brakes (assuming base) fit in the Forgeline OE wheels. Do you know if they fit in 18” size ones?

Some interior bits coming together. Sinking the speaker in the package tray is some work but it really stiffens up the panel and make the package tray look great.

We took all the stock 1969 bolts and had the stripped and zinc plated. A place in Mai will do is for fairly cheap money. We strip and plate a lot of parts. Easy maintenance and they look great. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

MPI make a “Big Bearing” that had the larger two row ball bearing, the bigger ZR1 splined internals and passive wheel speed sensors. For people not attempting to use 2008 and older Corvette ABS this is not an issue. If you are like me, then these are perfect and cheaper then the SKF “Big Bearing”. https://www.mechanicalpower.net/shop...-hub-assembly/ Mark Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Love the project, although for selfish reasons I hate to see it coming to the end.
It always seems like you have had another core car stuffed in the bushes waiting to go. Any chance? Not that your day job commands a little time......... |
