Thoughts on Drum to Disc Conversions…

Anybody that thinks drums are better than discs needs mental help. All I said was that drum brakes can stop very well if they are right and in good shape. That's a true and factual statement. Especially with light little cars like the A body.

Like anything else, add power and you need to add some whoa. Whether it's bigger drum brakes, or going straight to discs. I remember years ago, when I was into dirt track with some friends, we ran drum brakes, because they were lighter. By a good margin, too. We won a good bit, too. Those were some fun times.
