    I haven't tried one of these disc brake kits, but have heard good things about them. http://www.scarebird.com

    The kits are basically brackets to convert to front disc brakes and come with a parts list for you to take to your local Napa or other parts store and pick up the discs, calipers, etc.

  4. Smaller drums? You don't want less braking ability on the car. Buicks use lug bolts so you're pretty limited with wheel choice.
