1970 Chevelle Pro Touring Build

That's a good idea. I'll have to look at the backing plates and see if there would be enough room to drill some new holes. The other issue is clearance between the caliper/backing plate and the control arm mount. The floater setup pushes the brakes inboard and therefore reduces the amount of room available. It's a lot to think about!

You should have plenty of room. My Moser floater has been shortened 1/2" each side and I have Z06 calipers in rear.

What are you using for a parking brake?

I'm going to use the parking brake kit from GMR, I'm not pressed about it right now because my car is an auto.

When I get ready for paint and pull the body off, I'll weld the parking brake mounts and re powder coat the housing

That's what I was guessing. I have a hard time justifying $500 for parking brakes so I'd try and get my Camaro setup to work if I go the full floater route. I don't suppose anyone has any technical drawings of the fourth-gen backing plates?

Chris, how do you like Moser's floater setup?

If I had a full rear kit with parking brake like you do, I would probably try to do something like Ron did. My car is still in the assembly phase, so I can't say much about how I truly like the setup yet. Hopefully I will be able to have an informed opinion this spring.
