Brake kit Camaro 67

[Spiffav8]

Super clean and smooth looking car you have there. And I think 18"s are perfect on it.

Ok...so you've been talking to Corbin at KORE3. If it where me, I'd would be looking at the C5/C6 setup he has. I had basically the same setup on a 67 a few years back and it was awesome. My buddy Jeff runs it on his 68 and it will stop on a dime...or whatever the Swedish equivalent of a dime is. Both Jeffs car and my old one have the ATS spindles on them. A wonderful upgrade. I'm sure Blake and the crew at Speedtech will be happy to set you up with a pair. Corbin might also be able to supply them.

Hope this helps a bit.

Thank you! A dime is pretty much the same size here
Yeah I looked in the speedtech catalog actually after reading around a little bit here. I'm looking for a long term solution that looks nice. Even if the looks is important it need to be a "good investment" that makes the handling and driving better and also IF I want 500hp (or... Off course I WANT) in the future the brakes AND the steering need to be good enough.
Thanks for the input!

Sounds like you are on the right track. It's important to have a goal in mind and to stick to that goal. It sounds like the main thing you want is a solid and fun driver that performs and allows for a bit of future growth. Well....I've had that car AND I'm driving that car. My red 67 "The Bucket" had the setup I mentioned and and the ATS spindles. It also had aluminum bushings in the rear. It was powered by a decent SB350 and had a T-56 6 speed behind it. I LOVED driving that car and a lot of guys that came to visit said it was a build level that would more than satisfy them. Of course we all want more. LoL Right now I am storing my buddy Jeff's cars (JWcarguy) while he builds a shop. Of course the car has to be taken out and driven every now and then for "safety reasons". Jeff brake and suspension setup is a lot like what I had though he has the addition of the Hotchkis TVS kit in the rear. It also has a built L76 that's pushing 560hp. It's just silly fun. Honestly, if I where to build one that I would drive to and from work (and the weather is nice enough here that I could), it would have this suspension setup in it.

Looking forward to seeing what you do.

Jeff's 68 is the blue one on the right.


This was "The Bucket".

If and when you go big keep in mind you will have to have wheels designed to clear the larger calipers.

The advantage of C5/C6 is replacement parts and pads are easy to find and relatively inexpensive compared to Wilwood and Baer.

Is this the spindle you talking about?

That's the one.

Ok, I went for the wilwood brakes. I got a "ok" price here in Sweden. I know it will look good but we'll see how easy it will be to put them on. Im a little bit worried that them will change the offset to much. As far as I can understand it will do that.
