rear drum venting...

i cant believe im asking this it seem so bizzare to me but has anyone though about drilling/venting rear drums? i dont want to spent the money for a rear disc conversion because i plan to in the near future purchase a 12 bolt strange or moser rear and matching disc brakes at that time. i am just trying to get the back of the bird to stop a little better.

just throwing it out there...

Um...no. Sounds like a waste of your time..can't polish a turd. Want to stop better? Upgrade to rear PBR discs.
