Ok so here is why the rear (93-97 Fbody) brakes do not fit without some mods on a 64-67 nova rear (5 lug).
Luckily I planned to move my spings inboard for tire clearance, so as a result I should gain the clearance I need to run these calipers. Note that every thing suggested in the swap bolted on perfectly. However, the spring contacts the body of the caliper.

Sorry for the poor picture quality, I just snapped them with my cell phone.

exact same problem i had when putting the brakes on my car. the narrowed rear and leafe hit. (DSE mini-tub kit) so i got 2 inch drop springs with the kit insted of the 3 that i wanted and a 1 inch drop block from speedway. worked perfect!
