Rear brakes upgrade 8.8 and manual brakes, M.C. and factory swap disc??
Ran off end of track once, some 1/8 mile tracks are kinda short for stock brakes, I can lock up the front so better concentrate on stopping rear

bite the bullet and get some aerospace, strange, wilwood, etc..... you will be better off. chutes are handy also no matter how fast you are.

Ed when you change the back to disc make sure you put the proportion valve on the rears so not to lock them up..... bouncing is no fun.....

Thanks guys, i need to do something for sure , get line locks so my brakes dont get so hot , I forgot about heat and brake fade,lol. They also seem to be getting worse, probably glazing shoes-pads. All well season is pretty much over, here. Also i think bigger motors make it harder to stop ive learned, or some reason mine does.
