Re: [Amc-list] Rear Disc Brake Kit - The Street Rod Manufacturing Company

[Wayne MacQuarrie <waynem@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The Exploder rotors almost fit. Just a little machining to enlargen the 
hole in the disc by less than 1/8". Bolt pattern are the same. Rotors 
are under $20.00 each new. I bought a complete setup from a local 
"recycler" for $100.00 and just had to replace the rotors and pads.  
Work great with a hydroboost setup. LOTS of brakes.

Frank -- their system is designed for the model 20. Nice system.....

They aren't vented, but rear brakes usually do fine unvented. intenral parking brakes too, instead of the ancient prone to trouble Parking brakes in the calipers setup.
