Who has replaced front drums with discs and no power brakes---and ran them??
I am getting ready to install disc brakes on the front of my RPU to replace the tired 40 Ford drum brakes. Rear brakes will still be stock S10 drums. I do not have power brakes, just a standard Corvette double chamber master cylinder under the floor. Who has done this, and what difference did you see in stopping ability and required pedal pressure? Please---no theoretical answers---I want to hear from people who have actually made this change and driven their car---with no power brake booster.---BrianOld guy hot rodder
".......So sanded it all down and resprayed. ......" Been there. done that on a couple of paint jobs over the years. Usually took me a couple of days to get over being mad before I started...
