Firehawk brakes

How hard would it be to upgrade to the Brembo F40 package that came on the Firekawk? How much better would this be than my 1LE brakes?

Not hard. Can you cut a $5000 check? And that was in 1992. Wonder how much they would be now....

Last time I got in touch with Brembo, they were willing to cut a good deal on all that stuff and ship direct. The guy said it was all just laying around in a parts bin. That was like 2 years ago.

I thought the firehawk just got the LE1 brakes wouldn't that be like swapping to the same thing? I am not sure but I do the firehawks got a lot of the le1 stuff suspension wise so it may be the same type of brakes.

1LE brakes were standard. Brembos were an upgrade.
