Yeah, I know. I just picked your post to respond to what I feel are people wasting their time when they have too much time on their hands to do worthless performance mods!!
 
When I read things like this thread, I don't understand why people get PO'd when I bitch at them about talking abouit "ricer" stuff!!

Never said that I would do it, I was merely pointing out that it is
possible too be done.

I agree on the poser stuff, but if anyone out there just has to do it, the
tools are to be had.

Geez, not picking on you, Jim, but why would anyone go through all of this
trouble?

If your car is that quick, and you are a good-enough driver, no one on the
street, dragstrip, or track will be close enough to you to see your brakes,
anyway!!!!

IMNSHO, drilled rotors are "poser" stuff!!~

Actually there is a tool called a back chamfer that will chamfer the back
side of a through hole from the front.

True, but it's tough to chamfer the back side of the hole...
