    I'm upgrading the front brakes by using some Praise Dyno rotors and pads (I've had good luck using this brand on my 65 El camino). I'm also replacing the bearings, seal and the power break line from the caliper to the hard line.

    My question, since it's all apart I might as well put new or stock repalcement rebuilt calipers, what should I get and from where on line?

    I want to keep it as stock as possible and I don't want to have to modify anything.


    Thanks

    The more I thought about this post.... the more I realize I'm a MORON :Dou: I mean..... DUH we're talking about a caliper for a base GM platform that they made millions of.

    with a little help from your friends....

    With a little research you can upgrade your front brakes with "metric" calipers from people like Master Power brakes (slightly larger piston). Maybe a set of braided front hoses (Summit racing or Jegs) and how about a set of HP brake pads (several mfg..)???

    just asking....
