    I have done alot of disc brakes on late greats. I used ECI brackets and scrounged the rotors,calipers etc.I used 73-77 GM a body cars but the Camaros had them also. You can buy it all new at Napa Keep in mind some of the brackets will push your front wheels out a little. Another plus is you get Timken bearings rather than the ball bearings used in 58s As far as lowering I just cut a coil or so off the springs
