Need some advice fellas. My brother and I are combining forces to finish a 67 Barracuda convertible. It now as 9" drums. He has a complete Kelsey Hayes setup for the front, but no set wheel option. I have the 11.75 B-body setup with 73-76 UCA's, and a really good set of 15x7 rallys with new tires. Whichever way we go the other setup will be sold to fund the next evolution of the car. Neither of us has any experience driving anything but 9" drum setups, so I'm sure we'll be happy either way. Has anyone driven both setups? Is there a marked difference in regard to stopping distance between the two? I appreciate any advice you can kick our way. The rear I'm not concerned about. He has an 8.75 3.23 with 10" drums, and I have an 8.25 with 3.21 and 11" drums.

thanks guys....

Ken

p.s. forgot to mention....it'll be a relatively stock 2.02 head 340....
