Ive got a 68 camaro with drums. My friend has a 99z28 thats wrecked. Ok What all will I need to make the front work besides trunning the hubs down and getting caliper brakets(I know cut bosses down right). Yes I know brake lines too. Also If I wanted to use the rear disk what problems would I have? I would like to run a power m/c too. My motor is only running a rv cam and the wheels are 17 TTII's. Thanks guys.

Pretty easy change really. I used Speed Tech brackets. Ordered brake lines from Inline Tube. For the rears, I used both the left and right brakes and redrilled one bracket as it put the caliper in the shock. Two of the holes lined up so I just redrilled two new holes in the brake. This put the calipers at 9:00 and 3:00. Have to unbolt the caliper the bleed but that is not that big of deal. For an e cable, I used the stock 99 camaro stuff and cut down the cable housings so the fit in the stock 68 location. Little bit of heat and the ends came off. Then cut and refitted the ends. For the inner cables, I cut the cables shorter, drilled a hole in a 3/8 rod and brazed the end on the new cable to fit the stock 68 cable.
Worked good.
