Looking for interest in Upgrade brake system

My wife and I both own Camaros( I am on number 6, an 86 IROC) and I have been working with them for a few years. I have had 2.8s(junk box motors) to 350s. My major problem with the car was always the brakes. The rear disc helped some, but They still left something to be desired. I couldnt afford the 1LE upgrade kit, and didnt want to for price vs upgrade. So I started working on an upgrade of my own,and Im making progress. I was just wondering how many others would be interested in the concept. The system uses readily availble replacement parts, inexpensive, and common to find. All rotors/calipers/pads/bearings/hoses would be brand new(rebuilt calipers aside), and the whole setup would look like new. The rotors would be at least 1in larger than stock thirdgen, and the pads would be the same, and depending on cost, possibly even 4 piston calipers. The top end would be $450, and a group purchase would be about $400 or less depending on where cost tops off. All parts would be bolt in replacement, no mods. Let me know any thoughts, interests,or questions. BTW, this is not an ad, I have nothing to sell right now, but in the next week or two hope to have all designs tested and completed with paperwork to back me up. Mike

Well the financ. level you set is really low!
Try willwood ! There vented rotor syst. with 4 pistons is around 550$ the number is
950-140-2992 B
can someone state a magazine report where 1LE was testet against stock /Bear/Willwood!??
is there any data like "Road and track" do with several 60 to 0 stops!
And one thing is for sure NOT always running with the wolfes might get ya stuff cheaper!
