Whoa, thats good news to me! Better than digging up 70's toro and re-scraping it. Could you post an item #, and issue of the catalogue so I can e-mail them about it? A scan of the page would be awesome too. This is something I wanted to do to my 66.[/quote]
I will post more info when I get back home this weeked...

Re: 66 Drum to Disc Conversion
For those that have asked:
The catalog is free from Kanter. I have to affiliation with them, I have ordered parts in the past though.
You can request a copy at: http://www.kanter.com/catalogrequestQAS.aspx
The issue sent to me is the fall 2010 issue. The new brake conversion kits are listed on page one.
kits include:
2 - 12" rotors
2 - single piston calipers
1 - set of pads
2 - caliper mounting brackets
2 - brake hoses
wheel bearing, seals, hardware
Master cylinder
power booster
proportioning valve
I am hoping someone will post experience with this kit in the future.

Re: 66 Drum to Disc Conversion
Hmm... well, that doesn't sound complete to me... it's missing the control-arm parts... unless the "Caliper mounting bracket" somehow adapts to the existing ones...
Thanks for the info, I'll let you know if I order it.. . will probably be a couple months though before I do....

Re: 66 Drum to Disc Conversion
Well, I just got my kanter catalogue... And i'm shocked! They say that with thier kit you can still use the factory drum wheels! I'll call and confirm this a bit later... But that makes this an optimum solution. Son't have to dig arround for wheels even, and live with the uglier (imo) disk-wheels.

They made the kit through this winter, and discontinued them... They discontinued them a month after I had the money to afford one

Re: 66 Drum to Disc Conversion
thanks for the heads up on the kanter drum to disc kit - i think this winter i will do one of my 66s drum to disc. Brake Tech Solutions will do a 66 toronado for about $1000.00 they claim they have done these cars before.
