[scampy72]

kay so i was just wondering what the chances are that i have 10" drums? i have a 72 scamp that origionally had a 170 /6 now has 225/6. im looking at disc swap kits and they all say wont work with cars with 9" drums. and if i do have 9"ers what are the possibilities of just swapping to 10" spindels so i can do the swap? or would there be other things i would need to change to 10" stuff?

If you have an original slant 6 car the drums were 9" from the factory on every car I have seen. Wilwood makes a disk brake for the 9" spindle check with jegs or summit.

You can also use the SSBC kit and get factory 10" drum spindles. They are usually about $25 each.
