Wilwood four wheel disc conversation
What E-brake cables are used when converting to wilwood rear disc with the e-brake shoes in the rotor hat ? The cables that wilwood sent would go all the way to the front of the car and have to be ran up the same side of the car. Does any one know if you can use stock parkng brake cables ? The only ones I see offered are for factory rear drum brake cars......

You need cables with a clevis or loop style connector at the parking brake end so that you can connect to the lever actuator on the Wilwood internal parking brake kit. Lokar is a popular universal option, others choose to adapt cables from other, late-model applications with similar parking brake actuators, and yet another option would be to contact a custom cable manufacturer like www.controlcables.com.

From Camaro Performers magazine Oct 2011 -- Wilwood Brake Upgrade for first gen Camaro's -
""The existing GM parking brake cables wouldn’t interface with the new Wilwood parking brake system, so we picked up their universal cable kit (PN 330-9371, $120), which included the adjusters, Teflon-lined cable housings, and clevises.""
