Re: 1977 Chevy K30 Crew Cab Build

Sent Del another email today. I am already having them look into upgrading me to some gas slotted rotors from Stainless Steel Brakes for the front & rear, but am just not happy having the stock cast iron calipers on there - both because of the bland looks & for their overall stopping power...

Found a site called PolyPerformance that carries a line of billet 4-piston calipers & lets you enter the rotor thickness, so gonna have the shop check that out for me. They'd most likely have to fab up some mounts, but that's really where they shine, so no worries there...

The factory '05 rear calipers I'd leave alone, but just match the pads to whatever we run on the fronts. All the calipers will be red when finished to match other exterior trim.
