DO NOT skimp on the brakes as I tried to. The Wilwood Dynapros are insufficient for competitive track use as well. Sl6 at least, or a comparable baer system. I did 3 track days on OEM style drilled disks and cracked all the rotors and even the pads. They're all Chinese made.

The most important part of any competitive build is the brakes, fresh bushings, and some decent tires.

Worry about drivetrain later. I have a Muncie M22 with no VIN I've been considering selling, but its worth a lot to the resto guys I think.

Which Dynapro calipers did not work for you? These?
