WHat is a good but inexpensive set up for a 2nd gen camaro. My 73 has stock disks in the front and they work fine but I would like to get disks for the back too. I also have 18x10 rims with 5.5 back spacing and was wondering if a disk brake conversion will push my wheels out a little.

Any ideas on complete kits or just sticking with changing the back only will be greatly apreciated.

B-body spindles are a direct swap on your car, so you can go from 11" to 12" front brakes using junk-yard parts relatively cheap. You also can find these spindles pretty cheap with 13" brakes adapted to them because it used to be a pretty common swap onto Chevelles... now that there are better options available for the chevelles, a lot of them are being removed, and sold very cheap on ebay, and the forums.

4th-gen camaro rear discs will fit also... LT1 cars had 11", and LS1 were 12" They can be found for ~$200 on ebay.

Thanks for the help. I'll start look for the spindles.
