I guess I first have to confess that I'm pretty much a Pro-Touring "wanna be." I had a complete Global West suspension put in about 4 years ago (upper and lower control arms, springs, QA shocks, rear leafs, etc), Unisteer rack & pinion, and 17" wheels. Last year I had a 5 speed TREMEC put in. This year I'm thinking of upgrading the stock front discs ((and eventually the rear drum setup) to a Wilwood setup. The questions I have are as follows:
WHICH Wilwood "kit" should I get (for the front) - and WHY? 4 piston or 6? What size rotors?
Do I need a proportioning valve? Will I need one when in the future - when I do the rears?
Should I go the the Wilwood master as well?
What is a hydroboost?
Sorry if any of these questions are stupid. Thanx to EVERYONE for their help and guidance getting me to where I'm at!! Driving my Camaro is a blast!! For those of you that can remember . . ., I was the guy behind the counter at Burger King in the mid 70s on Friday nite when everyone rolled in. I WAS envious for 30 years. Now I just just look in my garage and MY 68 sits up on the lift waiting for Spring (an 03 Porsche 911 C4S is underneath). YES, LIFE IS GOOD!!! Thanx again.
