For what it's worth, I upgraded my '66 Valiant (SBP with 14" rims) to discs about 2 years ago, and I used the Scarebird kit. I'm very happy with the results - I've had zero problems and I highly recommend the Scarebird kit. |

Hello, I wanted to weigh in on the conversation. I did the scarebird conversion maybe 5 years ago. Have put alot of miles on the car since and have been very happy with the performance.pro/ con as i see it: Pro; 1) works way better than stock 9in drums. 2) low cost installation 3) parts available at most auto parts stores 4) ease of install, may or may not be a concern Cons; 1) i am now sort of "Stuck" with small bolt pattern in front, and my plans for the car have changed. 2) wheel selection is a bit limited by the sbp. 3) rear axle getting changed out to a beefier unit, therefore requiring carrying 2 spare tires to cover a flat tire. To summerize, i am happy with the scarebird install, however had i know about future mods, i may have gone big set -up in front all at once. Cost not withstanding. |
