Can you swap to 13" cobra front brakes while keeping the gt/v6 rear disc brakes? Setup consists of 99+ pbr fronts with a 93 Cobra mc/booster, nrc rear caliper brackets with fox 31 spline axles, all MM steel braided lines front & rear and a ford adjustable prob valve.

Yes, it's a total non-issue.

Cool thanks. It's about $260 all in for the swap new parts, pretty cheap. Big difference over the 11" pbr set up?

It is if you use them hard, otherwise any difference you feel can probably be chalked up to leverage. I wouldn't expect it to shorten your braking distances except from very high speeds or the 10th hard stop on the street.

I agree. Non issue. Really comes down to looks...The cobra rotor just fills a wheel better.
