Brake ducting Does anyone have pics of ducting to the front brakes? Any body know of a pre fab kit to do this? I would like to run ducts from the grill to the brakes, tried a search to no avail. <img src="gr_sad.gif" border="0">
Re: Brake ducting There is a picture in the new issue (may 2002)of GM high tech performance magazine on page 41 and another picture on page 38. Hope this helps.

Re: Brake ducting Just my .02 - Sometimes simple is best. I futzed around all those suggestions about brackets etc. Spent a lot of money and ruined much 3" duct hose when it got compressed with the sway bar or the lower control arms. Get a couple of NACA ducts from most any speed shop. Cut two holes in the air dam to accomodate them. Don't use 3" hose. Get some 2 1/2" hose. It fits inside the 3" duct and attach it with duct tape. Follow the sway bar with the hose right to the center of the wheel, front of the hub. Tape the hose to the sway bar with more duct tape. That's why they call it duct tape. Got to allow for the wheels turning so as not to squash up to the hose. When you lower the car, things will change so be ready to reposition the hose. It doesn't look classy, but it works.
