After much catalog browsing and planning, I've figured out how I'm going to
set up my solid rear end with disk brakes without paying $600.  That's the
price of the only disk brake conversion from speedway that offers a parking
brake.  I found out that the '69 camaro with the z28 package had rear disk
brakes.  Guess what.  The rotors from this car are 11.75" in diameter and
1.25" in width.  This is the size of speedways rotors!  The best part - The
calipers are only $15 each!  I'm going to have the disk brake conversion
with parking brake for under $200.  Geeze I love this!
