    Manual brakes on street car

    I’m doing manual brakes on my ‘79 Trans Am with a super simple factory setup. One of the most important parts with manual brakes is master cylinder bore size and brake pad choice. In my case, I have the Hawk HP+ pads for the standard D52 calipers. Before going manual brakes, I would do the...

    Holley LS EFI Intake

    Yea, really anything works if you do it right. I like the carb style intakes because our cars came stock with the throttle cable setup. I always thought dry nitrous plate in the plenum with fuel solely being tuned by the fuel injectors was always a really neat approach to charge cooling with...

    Holley LS EFI Intake

    Holley MPFI intake with fuel rails. This is for cathedral port heads such as LS1/LS6/LQ4. Nice intake but I have decided to go with a carburetor on my engine. I unfortunately don't have the hardware/brackets for the fuel injector rails but that can be had from Holley for not too much money...

    Pro-Touring F-Body Brake Master Cylinder

    After speaking with a couple brake vendors, I will be keeping this master cylinder for testing now. This might be slightly small of a bore for application but it may actually work. I will update this ad if it doesn’t work for my exact setup.

    70-81 Camaro Seats

    Pair of 2nd gen Camaro seats in red. Previous owner said the fabric was eaten by mice (looks like it). I cleaned these up as best as I could the other day and found the frame appears to be in super condition. None of the wire base supports are broken, hinges are still black and the non-coated...

    Wilwood SLC56 Calipers

    Hey guys, For anyone with a Corvette brake conversion or wants to convert to Corvette-based brakes, I have a pair of Wilwood SLC56 calipers. These are pretty much replacement for a C5 and base model C6 setups that use the Corvette 12.8" rotor. Stock GM is slide-bolt 2-piston.....these...

    Low Budget Brake, Wheel and Tire Upgrades for 1970-1981 F-Body

    Yes, I’m installing 2nd gen F-Body rear disc brakes. The new budget kits that are out there are kind of cheesy IMO. The backing plates from GM are sturdy and need to have the axle removed to install. I’m not using a slip-on backing plate like what’s out on the market.

    Low Budget Brake, Wheel and Tire Upgrades for 1970-1981 F-Body

    You are right. I wasn’t thinking a while back and bolted them on to move the car. Dave (PTFB) actually pointed that out somewhere else a long time ago but I haven’t gotten around to where I need to swap them yet.

    Low Budget Brake, Wheel and Tire Upgrades for 1970-1981 F-Body

    Hey Dave, If I recall, the new spindle you now sell changes track width based upon the version they get (where the ball joint hole is placed). I know with your setup, you offer the standard disc and C5 disc with a bracket for standard D52 calipers. Are there wheel mounting width differences...

    Low Budget Brake, Wheel and Tire Upgrades for 1970-1981 F-Body

    Last night, I went out to the garage and wire-wheeled the spindles and sprayed them real quick with some rattle can spray. I originally wanted to get them professionally degreased/blasted/powdercoated but this will have to do for now. Yea, it’s no perfect but I was happy to see some results...

    Low Budget Brake, Wheel and Tire Upgrades for 1970-1981 F-Body

    I have not measured personally but I recall seeing something like 0.125” difference somewhere. I would be happier if it widened mounting width though. Whoever has thrown this number would have had to fish a rod through the ball joint pin locations and measure to the rotor face on each setup to...

    Low Budget Brake, Wheel and Tire Upgrades for 1970-1981 F-Body

    If you haven’t done so, there is an adjustable procedure you need to complete with the parking brake. This is why your parking brake cables are threaded and you have the levers on your rear calipers. It has been known that automatic cars like what you have commonly don’t have the parking brake...

    Low Budget Brake, Wheel and Tire Upgrades for 1970-1981 F-Body

    Hey Guys, I have time off of work right now so I thought I would make a video on getting a low-budget brake, wheel and tire setup for 1970-1981 F-Body. With many people being on a low budget right now, I figured this would be a good time to share something useful for guys wanting to upgrade...
