New to board
Just making a post. I have been searching through the Disc Brake section for some time now looking to see what everyone has done. Great board and a lot of very good information. My project is a 1965 Pontiac Tempest. I rebuilt the motor last spring and droped in a 2004r and a 3.55gear. The motor is a 400, 375hp/400ftlbs tq. Now it is time to take care of the brakes.

Judging from the inspection sticker in the window I assume the kc would mean you're from the metro area. If so what part?
some day it'll be done

I am up in St. Joe. I plan on driving this car as much as possible. I am just looking to have a fairly stock looking driver. The next thing is the brakes. After that I just want to fix up the remaining items, front seat upholstry, door seals, body work, and what ever my wife will let me get away with.

I forgot to mention that I have to compete with the wife for automotive improvement funds. I have the Tempest and she has a 1957 Chevy Bel-air convertible. We got the car from her Dad a few years ago in pretty sad shape. We have done a few things to it just to get it so its safe to drive. I keep telling her that I don't want to sink a lot of money into it unless we are going to restore it all the way through.
