Best Brake Pads?

I use the C10 on the street, drag strip and road course. The front brakes are 73 C10. What pads do you recommend? Part numbers would be good.

Re: Best Brake Pads?

Thanks for that, useful info. I have found a sticky caliper so will probably fit the Wilwood D52 caliper upgrade kit. It comes with Wilwood pads so I wil see what they are like.

Re: Best Brake Pads?

I just put Hawk pads on my off thread TBSS, they seem to be far better than the OEM GM pads. I'm going to order some for my wife's car as well.
