Welcome Todd,
These kits are the best deal dollar for dollar brakes bar none.
If you have questions just call him.
I just tried out my 13" kit at Firebird on the middle road course.
No fade or mushyness after two sesions on the track.
The 5/8 mi. (drag strip) straight really put a test on them.

Great product and one sharp guy to deal with.
Thanks for the time and effort you put in for us Todd!

Glad you're aboard Todd! Your brakes are the best going. Any more thought on making a rear kit that will fit under 15" wheels? With and without parking brake is the main question I guess.

What pads did you run in them for this event? Just curious. Don't recall if we did up some dedicated track pads or only the more common BP10/20 parts.

Probably left a bit on the table....! LOL

I think we could take the basic non kit and change it to a smaller rotor. I'm not certain the overall performance is going to be stellar however. The smaller rotor will be a big loss for mass and efficiency. I'd have to pull the drawings on the current 13" kit and see if it allows room for a smaller mount radius.

I think one big issue is going to be the axle flange OD. You may need to turn them down...

Welcome aboard :thumbsup:. I have heard great things about your service and products. I might be interested in a application to fit under 15" wheels as well... Stan

I had the street experimentals in we put on a while ago.
I left a ton on the table.
New 4 bar ( Thanks Scott ) and the Beltech droped spindles.
Running on a fellow L members DRs on all four corners.
I backed out way early and took it safe all around.
Got them up to temp and did smell them after the first big slow up.
I will return with trak pads and more nuts :rockon::rockon:

I'm not feelin' it on the 15s guys.

The hub is to large to fit this with a hat and rotor and leave anything for the caliper to bite on. And honestly; the function of such a kit would prove so poor that I'd be embarrassed to put my name to it.

Only suggestion; back dated parts from an earlier truck perhaps.

I think most, me included, would settle for a bolt on kit that would be just equal to the stock rears. Solid rotor, even if it's smaller to allow for a 2 or 4 piston caliper. Just not having to grind the sh*t outta my calipers would be worth it. As always Todd you are the MASTER. :rockon:

We could do up a small rear kit if you are prepared to do an axle turning to cut down the flange and get rid of the rear parking brake. *I was thinking more front than rear earlier. Same rules apply though; it's not going to work all that well over a 13" rotor now.
