Ron from what I pull up C2,C3 systems used 1 7/8 four piston calipers in front and 1.37" four piston calipers in rear.
Almost every basic aftermarket replacement disc system uses the 1" MC copy.

So, can I use d614 pads in place of the d52's? Stock iron calipers and rotors.
Thanks, Steve

Yes D614(Impala SS/Caprice cop car) pads will fit D52s and have more surface area. I've trial fit them on stock iron calipers as well as the Wilwood dual piston D52s. They are on the 81 TA and 1LE 12" rotors up front when it gets rolling again.

Well, I got my 1" wilwood master installed and tested. They definately feel better, like you might expect a "factory" system to feel. It takes less effort to achieve better braking.
Thank you guys for all your advice.
Now I need help finding some good pads. The problem I'm finding, is matching them. The d52's are no problem, but the explorer rears (d667's) only seem to be available in hd suv style, except the EBC yellowstuff. How do you guys think those would work for a street strip car? The car is about 3,600lbs with my big butt in it.
