Thanks for the tip.
Matt, this is posted in the brake forum. If that's your criteria for which questions should be answered, then please feel free to swing by the brake forum and answer it there.
I have a '63 Valiant with front disc brake conversion. I need to change the pads but don't know what car the discs are from. Caliper has star stamp, brake pads are two different sizes (one 5 inch and one 6 inch), two-piece caliper is held together with two keeper plates, each with a single bolt...

Thanks, all!
abgwin, yes you probably saw it, I'm located in Oceanside. So I'm sure you're a great person to know if I ever need some help nearby! Thanks. :)
65Valiant310, thanks for offering! I'm sure I'll end up contacting you for something eventually. :)
As of Tuesday, we're switching out the 4bbl for a carter 2bbl.
What we realized today after a little poking around is that the guy used a 2bbl-4bbl jetting... but flipped it around the other way. Lunatic. So it should be all set for a 2bbl.
225 /6, Offenhauser mani with Holley 4bbl, auto 3 spd, unknown rear-end.
Note: Trying to switch out that Holley with a carter 1bbl. Any suggestions on how to get my hands on one?
Trying to get a hold of a carter 1 barrel carb that came stock in my '63 Valiant, slant 6 225. I've heard they're rare and hard to come by. Any suggestions?
Named it Voodoo. ;)
It's a pretty clean car, but it needs little details here and there. New carb, new steering wheel, tranny tune, trim work, new paint, etc. So it's a good first project car.
Might get around to starting a project thread soon. :)
I'm also new. Just bought a '63 Valiant 4 door for a father/daughter project with my dad. I'm interested in seeing you and your son's progress on the Duster!
