April 9, 20177 yr Author comment_517643 I appreciate your input......yes, I was careful to install the discs with the vanes angled back....amazing how much air flow moves through the vanes just spinning them by hand. These brakes really cool themselves....not important for street, but critical for racing.

April 9, 20177 yr Author comment_517658 Only on the vented rotors that are angled (curved vanes). Edited April 9, 20177 yr by Diseazd Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/57410-front-end-overhaul/?&page=3#findComment-517658 Share on other sites More sharing options...
April 9, 20177 yr comment_517659 Here's my cheap Stop Tec rotors. I'm happy with them and the ceramic pads I'm running. No brake dust or squealing. Street driving only. They have a left and right p/n. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/57410-front-end-overhaul/?&page=3#findComment-517659 Share on other sites More sharing options...
April 9, 20177 yr Author comment_517664 Wow....At first glance, I thought that was a long neck Bell's Two Hearted IPA ( not a jack) in front of the brake rotor. Looks good Cliff....but, disappointed that it was a jack.

April 11, 20177 yr Author comment_517826 All together.....I had to put new grease caps on to finish it off. All that's left is to bleed those big calipers and button it up.

April 11, 20177 yr comment_517827 How thick are those vented rotors? If I wanted the "hollow" or vented rotors would I need those Wildwood calipers? Thanks!

April 11, 20177 yr Author comment_517831 Not sure about that Cliff....maybe someone else can answer that question. My guess is you need to match the larger caliper to a wider vented rotor. These calipers are huge, as is the rotor. It's a simple install.....Xmas is coming up....put these on your list and tape it to the fridge.

April 12, 20177 yr comment_517833 The new brake package looks great and I'm sure will stop you on a dime but is there a significant weight gain with the new brakes? They just look so big, are they also heavy? Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/57410-front-end-overhaul/?&page=3#findComment-517833 Share on other sites More sharing options...
