Both Wilwoods and SSBC's, in my opinion are not even a great braking option. Are they better than stock? Yes. Are they worth the money? No. For the same price as a Wilwood setup you can get a MovIt Porsche caliper setup. With those calipers and brackets, you have the option of running MANY differnt types of rotors and a HUGE selection of pads as well. They are very serious brakes that probably won't start working until they warm up a little.
MovIt is based in Germany I think and they have even done conversions for some 2500HD Duramaxes.
