Re: 544 disc brakes 444-544 1965

Pete,

I have the mounting brackets from a 68 1800 and a 68 122. They are very different. I do not have the calipers from the 1800. Do the rears exactly like the front. You have to be more careful to get the rear bracket centered "exactly" so that the axle seal will work properly. I talked to Cameron at IPD about this conversion and he was "surprised", hadn't thought to do it that way. I will see if I can send you a picture directly.

Leonard

57 444, b20F shaved, header, Weber downdraft, ISKY cam, m41, IPD swaybars front and rear, 4 wheel disc brakes, 4.11 rear gears, 205/50/15's on 15 X 7 American Racing vintage slotted mags. 100mph+, 31 mpg average. And a plate that reads "VIAGRA"
