Hey guys,

A customer called me today, his shop is Super Charging a P38 with some serious mods and their customer wants to build big brakes for it.

He has talked with EBC and some other companies an no one seems to have anything available. Not too mention the fact that he is out in BFE Arkansas...don't they still use Horse and buggies out there? :D

Any words of wisdom I can pass on to him? I was thinking he could get some BAER rotors w/o the holes, have them drilled to fit the Rover lug pattern but then you would have to work out caliper mounts...

Thanks all,

What is their concern? Not enough swept surface area, or not enough piston surface area?

The rotors are probably plenty big enough, and vented. In the old days, we would have added another caliper (Hurst, etc.). Have you looked at or spoken with Wilwood to see if they have any suggestions?

I'd think you might spend nearly as much upgrading the brakes as they have doing the supercharging.
