Thanks stovens. I am actually building a system on an all handbuilt rod. It only weighs maybe 1800# and drums would work fine but all my rear end has right now is drums and backing plates, no guts, parking brake cables ect. I have S-10 style calipers up front on Aerostar rotors mounted to an early Econoline solid axle. If I go with rear discs, I would use a 67-76 Corvette m/c and a manual proportioning valve. I have access to a couple Exploder rear ends for cheap.
