revolution brake is happy to announce disc brake up
grades for all six generations of America's Sports Car……..
|
If you are a first Gen Corvette owner you probably already know your
front suspension is the same as the 1949 – 1954 Chevrolet Bel Air. The
stock front brakes are great for NCRS show cars and Survivors, but when
you have a C1 Vette you want to modify or go retro with, you are
definitely going to want to upgrade to a performance oriented disc brake
system. We offer four corner bolt on upgrades for C1 stock front
suspension and rear live axle. Our base kits consist of 11.75” rotors with
Wilwood forged Superlite calipers on the front and Wilwood Forged
Dynalite calipers on the rear. The rear kits utilize our exclusive Mr.
Parker mechanical parking brake so these brakes are full featured and
street safe……….
For those of you going retro rod or pro Touring, we also offer these kits
in rotor sizes up to 14”.

For the 1963 1964 Corvette owner we offer front upgrades utilizing the
original drum hub, and no rear offering at this time. Although any of the
kits we offer for the C2 late and C3 Corvettes can be adapted to your
earlier Stingray including our rear upgrades if you have converted your
rear trailing arm with the later drum style parking brake assembly.

The Corvettes most often chosen for resto mod and pro touring are the
65 through 67 Stingrays, and the 68 through 82 Sharks; and we have
them covered. To begin with, we have base systems designed for use
with the OEM 11.75” rotors. These kits are available as caliper upgrades
only, or they can be had with either 1 or 2 piece slotted, cross drilled &
slotted or plain rotors. You will be able to replace your over weight,
leaking, air sucking stock calipers with light weight race proven
components from Wilwood. Many Vette owners are seeking brake
improvements that accommodate the original equipment rims and in
most cases these kits are the way to go. All of our C2/C3 front kit
upgrades include tandem reservoir master cylinder and adjustable
proportioning valve.
For the Pro Touring or spirited sports driving enthusiast we have kits
available in 13” or 14” 2-piece rotors sizes with Wilwood Forged Superlite
calipers, the large rotor rear kits also accommodate the OEM e-brake
assembly.

As the C4 Vettes come down in price the desirability goes up as an
entry level Corvette for the younger enthusiast who wants performance
and braking at affordable prices. Revolution Brake has both Gen I (’
84 – ’87 C4) and Gen II (‘88 – ’96 C4) brake upgrades, beginning
with 13” 1 or 2 piece rotors and Wilwood FSL four or six piston calipers
all the way up to the top of the line 14” 2 piece rotors with huge Wilwood
GN III six piston calipers available for the front and Wilwood FSL calipers
available for the rear. All of our C4 rear kits utilize our exclusive Mr.
Parker e-brake system to comply with most state parking brake
requirements. The Mr. Parker e-brake caliper is an independent
parking brake caliper used in conjunction with the Wilwood FSL rear
calipers on these kits and in most cases requires an aftermarket cable
assembly.

We don’t stop short of the latest and greatest Vettes of all time,
Revolution Brake offers big brake upgrades for both the C5 and C6
Beginning with our 6 piston Wilwood Superlite caliper only front up
grade; this kit allows you the affordability of utilizing your own rotors
with the performance of proven Wilwood calipers allowing you the
flexibility of upgrading to lighter more efficient 2 piece rotors in the
future. Additionally we offer front brake kit upgrades utilizing the same
quality Wilwood caliper with 2 piece 13” or 14” front rotors. At the rear
of the C5 - C6 we offer our 12.81” 2 piece up grade which comes with
Wilwood 4 piston Superlite calipers and iron hats which are designed to
accommodate the OEM parking brake assembly.
