Jack... Pat Mical ( Future Auto ) in Mass. has a brembo set up that he has
adapted to the Pantera.. Pat's not a true vendor in the Hall or PPC sense.
that is, he doesn't really stock and sell Pantera parts and acessories. he's
more of a repair/ restoration shop as well as a custom fabricator, so he's not
likely to have one laying around on the shelf that he can ship you tomorrow,
but I would definitely give him a call and find out what it would take for him
to make you a set.. if I had known about this before I did my brakes I would
have gone this route myself.. I think that Brembo is definitely superior to
wilwood probably for all applications but certainly for the street, because of
the the reasons you mentioned.. good luck... Gray
