Help me pick front calipers
i already have my rear brakes. they are wilwood 12.19" diameter and .81" thick. they have 4 piston calipers with a total piston area of 3.00" and a brake pad area of 6.36"
my front brakes consists of 73-76 a-body spindles with the 11.75" rotor from a 79 cordoba. I have the AR engineering bracket that allow me to mount wilwood calipers.
my question is this:
should i get the front calipers with the largest pistons possible? i want to get as much braking force as possible on the front.
they offer the 4 piston calipers in total piston areas of:
3.00", 4.12" and 4.80"
they also make a 6 piston caliper that fits using the same mounting brackets with the following piston areas:
3.08", 4.04" and 5.06"
and a brake pad area of
7.03"
would the 6 piston calipers with the larger piston area and larger brake pad area be a noticeable improvement?
