Hello,
I've been using "R-4 Carbon Kevlar" brakes on a 1959 Corvette and1959 Peerless
(TR4A brakes) with good results. Both cars are vintage raced. I don't
recommend
them for street applications, they really squeal at low speeds. I have found
them
to be easy on drums and rotors, and they don't pull when cold. The cost is
approximately $130/axle....
The pads and shoes are distributed by Porterfield Enterprises Ltd, 1767
Placentia
Ave., Cosa Mesa, CA 92627;
email: timg@globalpac.com;
web: www.porterfieldbrakes.com
(949) 548-4470
(800) 537-6842 (outside California)
P.S. This information is from their 2000 catalog...some of the above information
may be incorrect.
Best regards,
Ron Cressey
