Hi all,

I'm in the market for a front disk brake conversion kit. I was looking at the one from Corvette Central, Ecklers and MP Brakes. The prices are all over the place for what seems like the same kit. Has anyone used any of these or any recommendations?

Thanks

I've done two Master Power Brake front disc conversions. Both also got the adjustable proportioning valve sold by MPB and it's mounted down below the battery, spliced into the brake block. I don't know that the valve really helps, but I installed it on both cars anyway.
After several years, there have been no issues with either car and they work fine.

I just installed the MP conversion kit in my c1. I chose MP because they will fit stock 15 inch wheels. Very easy installation. I'm still debating whether to put in a proportioning valve. Other forum members report they operate just fine without one. I don't see the downside of installing one.

I used ECI Engineered components Inc, all good, you need to plan on grinding on the brackets and having a nice pushing driver for the adapter

MP for me. Tried the Wilwood 4 piston kit but they do not fit 15" wheels even though they say they do.

MP's were easy to install and stop well without a proportioning valve.
