I am replacing my front 67 Camaro disc brakes (assumed to be stock) with an upgraded set. My buddy has a 72 Nova and wants to know if my old set (rotors and calipers) will fit his car. Thanks for the help. DeAngelo

Are your 67's 4 piston calipers?

Yes, start with a bar spindle and transfer everything else, including hardware.

Thanks, Everett. And Ron, I think that they are 2 piston calipers. Unless they are single. Cannot remember. :) Thanks!

P.S. What is a bar spindle??? Does that mean it is not a straight swap? Thanks, D

Thanks. Sorry for my ignorance. :) And does that mean that my friend will need a new spindle to make my old rotors fit??? Thanks, D

If he' s goingfrom drum to disc, the spindle will have to be cut from the dimension it is to -.620 inches for the calpier bracket to fit.
