I've used a few kits out there that were cheap. The kits basicly used metric calipers and rotors from 78-87 g bodys. All the kits I used were problem free and was able to go to local part stores for replacement parts. Obviously there are alot of great kits out there from dam neer every brake company. Just gotta look around to what suits your car and budget

well for right now, since I am really getting my lsx swap off the ground, I would like to concentrate more on it... However, if I can gather good info on what rear disc brakes will fit my 70 chevelle then I would possibly grab some..
A buddy of mine mentioned factory rear disc brakes off of earlier model camaros will fit on my chevelle with little modding... Has anyone heard of this before???
