FMS 5 lug cobra conversion kits?

Leaving the rear drums on is not so good. To me, Fox with drums says, "not serious" or at best, "drag car only". With the full Baer kit you get vented rotors in the rear and braided lines. And of course the bling bling slot/drill/zinc plate option. Nice to have all new parts, but it does cost though. Patient people with good mechanical aptitude can piece it together for less.

how much would that cost?
something i could do myself?

You can snag a new Booster and M/C for a decent price, the Booster is a bit of a PITA, but nothing that you cant do yourself!

eventually I might got to 4 wheel disc.

I just cant justify the cost right now. Ill see how the brakes feel after I do the front end.

When its all said and done ill have only spent just over $500 doing the front.
But I might need new rotors since the once I got used are getting some pretty serious rust on the braking surface.

i would never use calipers from a junk yard. i'd rather spend the $200 and know that the calipers aren't screwy and the lines dont have holes in them and the rotors arent warped, etc...

just my .02 cents


this is just for the fronts:
booster-$100
cobra MC-$100
adj. prop valve - $50
3-2 kit - $35?
MM SS lines - $80
bullitt calipers - $215
13" cobra rotors - $200

backs and im not done yet:
Eaton 31spline differential - $450
Moser 31spline Axles - $240
North Cobra brackets - $160
Calipers - $200
11.65" rear rotors - $200

That's one of the major benefits over other kits like Baer.

You do realize that the fronts of the baers can be replaced with OEM cobra rotors and pads and the rears with OEM corvette rotors/calipers/pads, right? Still failing to see the major benefit.
