Wilwood BBK kit coming soon

I have been working with a local brake supplier on getting a BBK together for the SVX. I am bringing my pearlie to get measured up this coming weekend. There will be a few options available. The kits will range from an "economy" 4 piston, 1 pc rotors, ss lines kit to a more extreme 6 piston kit. You will be able to pick and choose what way you want to go. A breakdown of prices will come later...

Re: Wilwood BBK kit coming soon

Will this be a front only kit, or are there any thoughts to a 4-wheel system?

Also, how much braking force can the master cylinder apply? Hopefully that's not going to be a limiting factor with massive calipers.

Re: Wilwood BBK kit coming soon

I have only been talking about a front kit for right now. If the master cylinder proves to be a weak point that can be upgraded as well, but I do not think that it will be....

Re: Wilwood BBK kit coming soon

Will this kit work with the stock wheels or will you need 17" or larger?
