want to upgrade rear brakes and keep 15''-rims. have c-clip eliminators on a 70(12)bolt rear axle and i would like to have a parking brake also as the car is mainly street driven. would the 11''-drums conversion with the increase braking surface area provide braking as good as a 11.25'' disc set-up ? looking for advice whether i should forget the stock 9.5'' parking brake and drum set-up and go for strange discs to fit the strange c-clip eliminators on the strange axles already on car.:confused:

well, right up until you mentioned the c clip eliminators, i was gonna tell you to get some factory discs off a Caprice or S 10 or Camaro or something.
