Mike,... Baer Brakes runs their rotors in that direction.
I think its really a matter of personal preference.

Chassis is really turning out sweet.
Congrats on all your success.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread (CLOUD 9)

the rotors may be on the right side, look at the fins on the inside, you want them to 'scoop' the air going forward, if that makes sence... if they are streight then its a looks prefrence
looks great, keep up the good work

Gee, three pages in one afternoon. A new record? And man, does that truck look sick sitting up on the trailer. That'll be a fun ride down the 540. People will be pulling up alongside to check it out.

Looks amazing!!
In the shot of your truck on the trailer, is that front most tubular crossmember something you had Nate make for you to lose the stock one and look as good as the rest, or did I miss that you got the bolt on body drop, and that is part of it?

Mike.... My Wilwoods actually have a directional arrow on them to let you know the rotation of the rotors and you have them the CORRECT way for Wilwood and Bear. Keep them that way. That is one thing I look at every time I see a car with drilled and slotted. The speedshop where I had my truck dynoed and tuned has a 1200 RWhp new vett and they are the same way as ours. I figued if he has them on that professional race car that I am right too.
