Calipers - many GM use similar bolt patterns, but the Throat may be
wider. Apparently trucks use a fatter disc than cars - or so I've gathered
from a brake discussion at chevelle tech.
Proportioning valve - vehicle weight distribution is criteria for
use. A van is quite a bit different than a coupe, It might work on
elky or wagon, but I doubt it would be 'right" for coupe.
Master Cylinder - cheap enough if you buy a rebuilt unit (I know some have
problems) - why mess with the one from the van? Are you 100% sure that it
is good?

Hello Guys & Gals.....
Got a disc brake question for you. I have a 66 Chevelle Malibu that I will be putting front disc brakes to. Right now the rotors are off a 72 Cutlass. I have the oppurtunity to acquire calipers , proportioning valve and master cyclinder from a 70 Chevy Van. What I need to know would this setup work ? I know you can interchange cars , but can you interchange from a van to a car. I may have to rebuild the master cylinder it holding fluid now or would it be wiser to buy a new master cylinder?
Another question also if anyone out there has to patch panels for a 66 Chevelle fairly reasonable I be interested, need left and right fender patches.
Thanks again........John
