Hello guys and girls hope you all have a good Memorial day weekend I just want to get some opinions on the brake upgrade i am going to do, i have not bought everything yet just a few parts.
The car is 1986 cutlass, its going to have a mild build maybe 300 to 400 hp, not sure what engine yet, I am going threw some ideas, but i like to fix other things before dropping a engine in, as other things are more important to me, like stopping and suspension work.
Anyways the following is my idea
1)Stainless steel brake company two piston caliper direct bolt on replacement, with the pads their provide, which are semi metallic/ceramic pads
2)New Bendex Rotors, which i believe are stock replacements
3)Global West stainless steel brake lines, in front only
4)New brake fluid synthetic DOT3 or regular DOT3 i dont think it matters (unless someone wants to say different please do 😱
5)aluminum drums (already got them, just have to cut them)
6)S-10 Rear cylinders (Bought them from g-body.com)
7)New drum hardware
8)New shoes, probably bendix or robestos
That's it, Please let me know if this sounds good, I think this should do, for daily driving and should stop, please I ask because i am unsure, and i haven't bought the expensive stuff yet, like the ssbc calipers.
