I have a Baer Brake system on my 70 Chevelle. I would suggest getting on the phone with one of their tech support people and finding out which setup is right for your car and type of driving. I believe you'll be buying direct from them.

Catalog aweful.
Website Aweful.

Combine them both and it is just OK.

I am sure they ahve great products but they really need to make their presentation of their products much more user friendly. I ordered a catalog back in October and I just got it yesterday and it took multiple emails to them to get it to me.

So far I am not impressed with the company and the way they present themselfs.

so far in my research there front kit it nothing more than the C4 Corvette 13" HD brakes, the only thing they are really including is "custom" brakets for a TON of cash.

PBR twin piston calipers (look Identical to 99+ Mustang Cobra calipers,~200$ NEW)
C4 13x1.10 rotors (HD suspension option on C4's)
~100$ for decent ones
Braided brake lines for around ~80$
Master cylinder ~80$
Turning down a set of Drum brake hubs to 5.9" ~50$ at MOST (unless the machine shop wants to rip you off bad)

I figure about 510$ for all the parts NEW to do it yourself, custom brakets shouldn't cost the 500-600$ difference in price between doing it your self and buying a kit. I've been looking for brakets for mounting the C4hd/Cobra calipers to drum spindles but haven't found any. I DO have a plasma cutter on the way and plan on making my own if I can't find a set.
