Disc brake question

[Veltboy618]

When you guys do the 98+ dual piston Blazer brake conversion on the front & you want 4 wheel disc, what rear disc/calipers do you guys usually put on what work well with the upgraded front?

LS1 rear brakes here. The Blazer front and LS1 rear brake swap was so simple. Couple of hours and the brakes were done & upgraded front and back and back to driving the car.

for the LS1 what did you do for the E brake cable?...I'm using f body bracket shimmed 1/8", f body rotor with a seville rear calliper on a 67 chevelle rear..the parking brake cables from the 4th gen f body work with the sevilled calliper

Or, for the major upgrade, with mods, swap in a mid 90's caprice axle with the good discs. I have a basic write up somewhere in the drivetrain section. No matter what you will need a 4whl disc master cylinder and proportioning valve. I recommend an adjustable valve

I have not bothered with the parking brake just yet ( I don't use it on my other auto trans cars either ). There is a writeup on the turbobuick site IIRC whereas someone had made a simple bracket to use the fbody cables ( although they are centre pull so one cable is tight and the other slack. Someone else was using cables from a Wbody because the parking brake is located in the footwell same as the gbody.
