| I haven't had direct bricklin brake experience (yet), but can add a few 
comments re AMC discs. AMC has used several different brake systems 
over the years, but they are all easily interchangeable in sets. Early 
70's used Kelsey-Hayes and later used Bendix brakes. I have installed a 
set of 73 Ambassador Wagon brakes on my 77 Hornet (only because the 
hornet rotors were ruined and I had the wagon I got the 401 from for 
parts; both brakes were 11"), then removed them and installed a set of 
lightweight 10" Bendix brakes from a 1980 4 cyl Concord. It was a 
simple bolt-on, with the only concern making sure the flex hose 
matched. Assuming the Bricklin has 11" Bendix I don't think there would 
be any improvement available with commonly available AMC parts. I have 
some catalogs home to check, I'll try to remember to do so tonight.
