I am sure it has been posted here somewhere else but I had no luck finding it. I am looking for information on what is the best disc brake set up to install on a 1950 Dodge Wayfarer. I am going to install a 360 SB with a 727 in the car and am worried the old drum brakes will not be sufficient. This car has been in my family since the mid 50's and I am wanting to get it back on the road again, with some minor modifications. Also some information on installing the motor and trans would be helpful as I am sure this has been done before.
Scare bird is a nice easy kit to install. The motor and grand is a bit of trial and error. Took me about 4 times to make sure everything cleared. I did need to install mini starter I get around the steering box.
I used Rustyhope stuff and a pedal bracket and master from ECI on my 50 plymouth and have been happy with both. http://www.ecihotrodbrakes.com/ http://rustyhope.com/site/
Here is a link to a swap that is nearly identical to yours: http://p15-d24.com/topic/25759-318-into-my-50-coronet/ Fester used a Dart/Duster exhaust manifold and moved the engine toward the pass side and cleared the steering quite nicely. .
