disks off any 69-72 cutlass, 442, F85 will work. F85 is just a trim level of cutlass, not sure if it was available after 70. I have a 65 F85 and I will be using disks off a 72 monte carlo on it.

yes, the disc brakes are the same, however, you need to use the proportioning valve and master cylinder & booster from the same car. another words you cant use a 71-72 valve with a 70 ms. i would get the whole ball of wax from the 72.
