AC DELCO / GM GENUINE

I`m hearing from a few suppliers now that they wont attempt ordering anything due to the current UAW strike. While we try to maintain a small amount of the normal usage parts there maybe a time in the near future where we will not have instant access to some of the parts we normally would order per order like most of the GM calipers rotors we use. For now it seems our supply chain is in working order and we are double ordering some items to be sure we have at least a larger stock than normal but who knows where this can go, just a FYI for today.

Chevelle Guys….Inside!

New bracket to use on the CPP drop knuckle..Brembo brakes for your classic! These CPP drop knuckles (2″drop – 30017) have a 1 inch raised upper ball joint for better handling with less camber gain and bump steer then a stock spindle and they use off the shelf C5,C6 or C7 hub bearings, in fact you can even use Gen 5 or Gen 6 Camaro SS hubs! The brackets can fit the knuckle after some modifications we perform, the steering arms also need some slight modification we do in house..after that you can bolt on CTS-V, Gen 5 , Gen 6, or C7 brakes to your classic!…for more info email us

Welcome 2023

Thank you for your business in 2022 !! It was a great year with sales growing over previous years .  Most importantly we continue to expand our business with great customers, new business contacts, new products and the best reward of all – being a part of your build, Thank you I always look forward to the new year, clean slate- fresh start kind of vibe, that always holds promise.  New products are always fun to bring out and it’s rare that I turn down an opportunity to create a new conversion,  work with a new spindle or do something that no one has done This year I have some new items we have been working on with a few customers, some relevant to a lot of folks, some not so much but still pretty cool and worth the mention.   C10`s  They are popular no doubt…  We have been itching to do a conversion based on a hub and bearing type knuckle, well – we have a prototype bracket and some mods detailed to make that happen, a customer approached wanting this exact thing so with some c.a.d. design and some laser cutting we have a bracket for the CPP […]

Stock, back orders, out of stock

Just wanted to drop a quick memo on the products stock status. When something is out of stock and cannot be back-ordered, it basically means we do not know when we will have this available to purchase (no ETA) When you see “available to back-order or “available on back-order” It means you can purchase it, we have a ETA on the part being in stock or we have the part and there is just a wait to have it built or completed. Usually if we have it it can ship out right away or within a few days, this is of course with the exception of full spindle kits When you see “in stock”, This means it is in the shop and ready to ship minus any preparations or special customization’s, sometimes we have the parts to a bracket but they need to be welded and powder coated or we have the brackets and we need to tap and package them etc, but in general these are item’s we have and can be assembled to ship out within a reasonable amount of time. For the time being any full conversion kits with spindles will continue to show “available on back-order” […]

order processing times

At this time most orders are running about 2-3 weeks, some longer. Some vital parts have been hard to acquire and one small part missing can hold up an order. These are all custom built parts and built per order so things take time. Please allow for this when you order and please be patient with us, we are working as hard and as fast as possible to get your order out to you. As much as I would like to stay in constant contact with all the customers it is just impossible, the emails could consume our whole day every day if we let it. If you have sent a question or are waiting on a response Please be patient we are working toward your response.

GM Brembo Caliper Identification

So more times than I can count customers have miss identified calipers , these can be expensive mistakes. I hope this post can clear up some of the confusion and shed some light on some of the subtle differences that these calipers have. First let`s talk about front calipers. Each Brembo caliper is created to fit a certain rotor size and for the most part we keep them on that intended size to keep things simple. So starting with the smallest 4 piston the general uses, the “JL9” or ATS is the base caliper on the JL9 brake optioned C7 corvettes and also that same caliper was used on early ATS Cadillac’s and most recently the V6 6th gen Camaro w/ Brembo option. All of these calipers use a 12.6 inch rotor, however each rotor has its own differences, the C7 rotor is the one we use with all of these calipers for most conversions. Reason being is that the c7 rotor has the legacy pilot hole size (2.78) and the low hat depth of 2.010. below is a list of the rotors critical specs for each C8 JL9 =12.6 2.010 hat 5 x 120mm 67.5mm Pilot 14MM studs C7 […]
