Re: Decent Brakes on a 70 C10 for today
I haven't done the math but I see people suggesting the D52 twin piston caliper. I would verify the pressure/clamping area is actually increased before focusing on a caliper swap. The twin piston arrangement would probably better distribute the pressure applied from end to end of the brake pad if there's not much of an increase in piston compression area.
Better brake pads for sure & an adjustable prop valve to better dial in the rear brakes for the specific vehicle would be my fist steps.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
