RE: All talk no action!
a wrecked 95 sport coupe i tore apart for parts had rear disc - i still have all the parts, my experience with drum brakes and racing, they last about 2 laps then they quit working, so i just changed the cars setup so it will slide in the corner on its own & dont need to count on the rear brakes at all, im probly gonna switch to rear disc for next season, if i do ill be sure to let evryone know how it works out.
im pretty sure rear disc was an option on evrything but the base model, i guess not many were ordered like that
if you want less work leave the wheels on & drive it as is

wouldnt the master cylinder for drums have less fluid volume for pedal travel distance - and the disc conversion would make the pedal spongy, calipers do take more volume to move that the small wheel cylinders on drums...

I've found Shelby Chargers, Shelby Daytona's, GLH's, AWD turbo Talon/Eclipse/Laser's and Stealth R/T TT/3000GT VR4's in my local junkyards before, so I know that there around.
