Camaro --> Nova disc brake swap?
I'm giving my generic front disc brake set-up from my 67 camaro to my friend who owns a 72 nova. He currently have drums all around and a 11" booster.
I'm giving him the rotors, calipers, brackets, dust guard, pads, brake lines. I know he'll need disc brake spindles and new bearings.
Would he need anything else? New master cylinder? New dist block or proportioning valve?
thanks
Oliver

disc swap
New master cylinder? yes you will need a disc master cylinder. New dist block or proportioning valve? yes on both or go with a combination valve that combines the two

Factory Disc/Drum setups also used a hold off valve, which delayed application of the rears.

Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? Would you rather be the architect of what we might create?
