These look pretty good to me, not too high end, but at least drilled. But has anyone had a bad experience with these, should I stay away?

Or if anyone has some recommends, please let me know. I can do the work myself, so looking for a farily easy complete kit.

Much thanks,
JL

If you are interested in the best performance, avoid drilled or slotted rotors altogether. For street/everyday driving, solid rotors are a much better choice.

Rich,

Yeah, stick with solid rotors? Good to know. I was wondering if all that wasn't a bit of a snake oil sales gimmic - I am sure those other rotors are beneficial to some, but...

Is there a kit out there you would recommend? I have searched here on the Team Chevelle and have found some links/threads but they seem to be a bit old. Not that that matters much, but I would like to know if there's a really amazing kit out there, that fits like a glove and comes complete, and as assembled as possible.

Am I dreaming?

JL,
Are you looking for something close to stock (like you don't want to upgrade wheel size etc.) or are you wanting a hog wild setup. Maybe even something in between?

I would love to keep a straight stock look and feel to the ride. Nothing hog wild. I have 15" Rally wheels which I want to keep as well.

I asking for the world, I know, when I say I want something simple, easy, affordable and will get the job done. My right leg is twice the size of myleft now from stompng on that pedal!

I bought the same kit from these guys for my 72 Chevelle this X-mas. Everything went together great, no problems at all with the installation. However, I am catching hell with bleeding the brakes.
I have 15" Crager rims and they clear the calipers with no problem. As far as the slotted and drilled rotors are concered, I got them and think they look cool. Maybe, if I can ever bleed the brakes, I will tell you how they perform

Go to hydroboost. It is the best thing you can do for your brakes. You must have a power steering pump but it really is far superior to the vacuum assist and really gives alot more room around the drivers valve cover.
Hydroboost is compact and extremely powerful
I have run drilled rotors for 20 years without a problem. I recently upgraded to 14 inch custom rotor and they are also drilled.

This is a 12 inch stock rotor that has had 3 pounds taken out of it with drilling and turning beside my new homemade 14 inch rotor and aluminum hat. I drilled this rotor also. I am not afraid of cracking and the holes allow gas and dirt to exit from under the pad.
