: you'll find that the 11" discs you can convert to are more then adiquite. the 17"+ are more looks then anything else. Rims & tires cost lots of $$$$$$$$$ and ride like hell. The big thing is the pedal ratio, master cylinder size, and using stainless steel flex hoses. You'll feel the difference.
: : All righty guyz.... here i am.. about to have a local Hot Rod shop rebuild my stock block to 300HP, but i'm thinking to myself that right now my stock brakes already suck, so i will probably kill myself with a new engine and stock brakes. So here is my question. I knwo that lots of the new imports with there 18inch wheels have like 14 inch disk brakes... now that is probably impossible to do on a set of 15inch rims, but are there some good powerful brakes or systems that i should look into so that i don't kill myself with my new found horsepower??? any help is appreciated guyz. Thanks!!!

Where do you get the flex hose? I'm assuming that you are replacing the rubber ones?
