    Thanks guys. The previous owner said he thought maybe MAS? But I can't find any info on it. What would I do for a brake set up. There is alot of homemade parts. (caliper brackets ect.) Yup im aware of the header wrap, I used to work in a speed shop. I want to get new headers eventually anyways.

    Looks like I stand corrected.........that is one deep axle!! Yes, Highboy 32 is right, they are '49-'54 Chevy spindles, probably that have been machined to accept later disc brakes. Speedway sells disc setups for these, assuming yours are machined to the same size. A quick check with a tape measure and calipers will tell you what size they currently are.

    It doesn't look like MAS has a current website, but they do have this:

    the front brakes are 11" disks with late model chevy calipers. The rest is fabed up. Thanks for the help guys. Much appreciated. This is a very helpful forum.


    So I guess I could use this kit? http://www.speedwaymotors.com/p/1352...-Spindles.html
