Unhappy " RotorMania "

ok guys! i about have my disc brake conversion aquired at least all the pieces with the exception of rotors and proportioning valve. As you know from previous post i am converting a 70 satellite to discs. spindles,upper arms,caliper brackets and clips i had initially. on the way now is single piston calipers nos quality from 73-74 b body, also an nos a-body 73-76 manual disc master cylinder. I still need rotors and proportioning valve. my next question would be what size rotors do i need? where can i buy them? and proportioning valve too? i think i can find the brake hoses. have i missed anything? just want to say yall guys have really informed me and boosted my confidence even further in this project im undertaking. i appreciate your opinions,knowledge,suggestions and support. i do have a pic of the car im working on if any of you want to see what im doing. just give me your email and i'll send it. thank you my friends...shaky

Default

Get the rotors that match the spindles that you are running. If you are using the '73-'76 "A" body spindles, then that should be your rotor (11"). The proportioning valve should be a shelf item at Napa for the same app as your master. If you choose, and don't mind a few extra pounds, you can use the 12" rotors from a '79 Cordoba on the '73-'76 "A" body spindles, but you have to change the mounting bracket for the calipers as well. Sometimes this will necessitate an adjustable proportioning valve which is readily available from Mopar Performance.
