HELP!! Disc brake conversion
 
I'm looking for a parts list of what i will need to convert my disc/drum setup to a modern c4/c5 corvette disc/disc setup.

I'm attempting to do this on the cheap and would appreciate any help you can provide. The only think I know of that is particular about my application is that I have a ford nine inch housing with ford "big ends."

There are two common Ford Big-Bearing housings, the old style and the new style (Torino). The old style uses 1/2" T-bolts and has a 2.375 x 3.500 pattern with a 2.36" brake offset dimension. The new "Torino" style uses 3/8" T-bolts and has a 2.000 x 3.563 pattern with a 2.50" brake offset dimension.

Good luck,
Tobin
