If someone could help me out here. New to the game and just got my 69 restored and was trying to convert my front drums into disc brakes. I heard of there being donor cars that you can use now to convert over. Now would a front 2002 Camaro setup work in this situation? Or what are the other donor cars? Any help would be greatfully appreciated. THANKS!!

Yeah man I heard if you get a 79 pinto you can use the disc brakes off of that! I also heard that a AMC Pacer is also perfect for this application! Good Luck Holmes!

You will have much better luck with putting this in the hybrid/conversion place.

As for your question about your brakes... are you wanting to put LS1 style brakes on it, or are you wanting to do like a factory brake? If you are wanting to go factory, look no further tahn Ebaymotors. They have all different kinds of setups that you can choose from. I did the LS1 style brakes on my 68 firebird that I had and wow they were awesome! Requires a little bit more work, but the results are amazing.

Actually found a 2002 as mentioned and he stated that I might have to change the spindles but for the most part should work. Just wondering before I purchase. THANKS

any 68-72 GM A-body discs will work. use the A body spindles and swap your arms for the steering linkage from left to right and use the A body dust plates. you will need a prop valve, but it works great and better then stock 69 camaro parts. due to the fact the calipers and rotors are larger for a bigger car. i used to own 3 69s and did this to all of them. any other 69 or first gen questions let me know. ive owned too many!..lol

Check out Ricks First Generation Camaro. http://www.firstgen.com They have complete conversion kits and have great technical service if you need it. When I bought my 67 it already had disc brakes on it. My friends 69 RS has drum brakes and there is a HUGE difference in how my car stops and his stops. Good luck with your conversion.
