Thanx....very simple setup for corvette stuff...Kore 3 makes it easy....cheap? no ......but when U don't have to "cobb up" pieces to make it work....priceless!....I still look for bargains and do alot of fab myself but when it comes to stopping.....won't chance it.....Wasn't going to use parking brake feature but had second thoughts.....Tobin made these to use lokar universal cables or U can adapt factory fit cables....shoes are inside rotor hat...They are actually a GM piece...Most everything else machined by Kore 3.......more this week.....jim
