1LE Brake job done.... hope it works.
That is a VERY NICE JOB Jerry. :hail: Like those lightened rotors and BIG Wilwood binders.
I don't think you'll have a problem makin them work. Maybe an adjustable prop valve and check that the MC bore has enough volume to pump those binders up but I'm sure you know all that.

That looks way cool!:hail:
So do you have a list of what you have there?
I really like those Wilwoods
It looks like the only 1LE part is the spindle.

The spindles are factory GM 1LE parts. The rotors are Raybestos 1LE size #5994 and was 52 LBS out of the box per pair. The stock rotors are 42 Lbs and with some mill time the Raybestos 1LE rotors are now 37 per pair. The calipers hit the scale at 3 LBS each so with the thicker pads the total weight loss is 12 LBS.
My cars is more for drag racing so what i look for is weight reduction the most and if you get more stopping power thats good but is not needed for what i do.
Wilwood has six piston calipers if you need killer brakes on your car. The price for all the parts is in the high 900s and thats way more than the $391 for the parts on my car.

Jerry,
Has your friend completed the tubular a-arms with the spring perches for auto cross yet? If so is he selling them? Please let me know, or if possible, do you have an e-mail address for him? I would like to buy a set if possible.
Thanks,
