Re: How Much Interest: 13" Big Brake Upgrade

The setup has been on the Chevelle for years and I have not had any problems with the custom made hubs. It works great! Dave
We all know it can be done. The prob would be not all rotors (& therefore hubs) are created equal.

The main concern is making sure it's done responsibly. How much structural evaluation of the hub is actually done after the machine work? Did you just machine it & install it with 'real world' or 'on the road' testing?

Do you have any pics?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
