[V8Vairs] front brakes?

[Sadek Charles H DLVA]

Suggest you go with disk brakes if you can afford it and if it is easy
enough. Disk brakes are so trouble free.  My racing drum brakes do
exceptionally well WHEN they are working correctly. Any little thing becomes
a pain in the a**.  Put disk brakes on and forget them until they wear the
pads out.  Better cleaning water off, too. (Haven't had a water problem
racing in the rain with drum brakes, however).

Along with the question from Richard Vance--Please. Another "voice" 
question--My '65, under mod with Fiero drive "train", now has the small lug 
/ wheel pattern in the rear , with the standard Corvair front. Has anyone 
installed the small lug pattern drum or disc in front that will accept the 
Fiero wheels in front; and I prefer drum;for no other reason than this car 
is NOT for high performance;but "leisure" style driving  (grin)    Dewey
