Re: [Chevelle-list] Backing plates

[Capt Crunch]

Thanks for the replies guys. I actually fudged it up... looking for 9.5" backing plates   Brian: Thanks for the reply, but the fullsizes use a slightly larger 10" drum I believe. So I know the Imp/caprice is out... not sure on the bel air what size it has in the back. The 9.5's are actually the stock size on most late 60's and early 70's mid sizes.. A-bodys included.   Fred: 500 is sure a grip to pay for rear drums, but I suppose that is the 11" upgrade I was looking at for a bit.   Thanks Mikey ----- Original Message ----- From: Fred Dowaliby Sent: Saturday, May 08, 2004 9:30 PM To: The Chevelle Mailing List Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] Backing plates   Mikey, I just put a set of 11" on my '68 10 bolt. Got a complete bolt on kit from Master Power Brakes. They are www.mpbrakes.com and tel # is 888-251-2353. My kit was  DR1700K, and included 11x2" finned drums, and complete backing plates with kevlar ceramic shoes. Cost was $495/pr. Haven't driven yet so can't comment on performance.
