Guys, looking to do a rear disc brake upgrade to my 78 Camaro.
I have 17" rims on front and rear.
Already have a C5 brake conversion done to the front.
10 bolt rear end, looking to upgrade that in the future to a 12 so
need something that will be flexible for that later on.

Looking to upgrade my rears to big disc as well, (w/E-brake) and dump the ugly
booster and master in there now for a hydraboost setup.
Looking for thoughts and options for what systems I can purchase.
So far I have 1 suggestion from Nastyz28 for this kit.

I don't want a set of cheap non-zinc coated rotors, that's my only concern.
A member of Nastyz28 named Ed Miller is working on a C5 rear setup with E-brake.
I'm just not sure it will be done on time for my consideration.

Any thoughts or fingers in the right direction would be appreciated. :)
I've been considering this Hydraboost system....not sure though.
Looking for feedback on this as well. http://www.abspowerbrake.com/camaro/6769camaro.html
