Hey all,
My neighbor has a '69 Camaro with a stock front disc setup and a GM late rear disc swap kit. Nothing exotic. The car only sees weekend ice cream shop runs, no tracktime, no drag strip, just local and country cruising.
Anyone have a recommendation for front pads that grab without being heated up on a track? Don't care about fading or repeated stopping, just something that will grab on the first stop better than it does now. I'm guessing he has low-dust million mile pads now, as they begin to grab after about the 5th 30-0 application.
What he has is in proper order, no air in lines or warn out parts, I just think the pads could be better.
If it were me, we'd start over on the brakes and put a decent modern brake kit on the car with a hydroboost, but he's not ready for that and likes his 14" rallys.
Thanks!
