Mustang II Big Brakes
Looking for some good info.
I am putting a Mustang II on the front of my 34 ford sedan.
I have been buying the parts as I go.
I want to put 11" rotors on the front with ford pattern (4-1/2" ).
I have the caliper bracket and but I need to know what rotors to use. What year ford or chrysler product has the rotors the can be used. I know you can buy them from Speedway. But I want to save some dough ( shipping rotors adds to the cost)
info pass on
rear disc brakes for ford rears ( 9" and 8" )
82-88 Lincoln Continental Rotors and 78 Cadillac rear calipers with E-brakes too
Thanks
Have fun
Tom

found this on a site i was looking at...joe
At least some of the 75-80 Ford Granadas, Mercury Monarchs, Lincoln Versailles and 71-73 Mustangs and Cougars (what about
Torinos and Montegos?) have the larger 11 inch diameter discs. The Granada/Monarch/Versailles cars are the most popular
donors for this swap because they have the larger rotors, are relatively common (and therefore inexpensive) in junkyards, and
have parts that are still stocked by local auto parts stores. Also, if you are hunting front brake parts from a Granada, Monarch, or
Versailles, check the rear for disc brakes. Some Granadas and Monarchs, and all Versailles came with disc brake equipped 9"
rear ends.Donate Blood,Plasma,Platelets & sign your DONORS CARD & SAVE a LIFE

Welcome to CHR. I think that you need to hook up your vacuum advance. At part throttle when cruising you have less air and fuel in each cylinder, and the air-fuel mixture is not as densely packed...
