Yep, that'd put you in "prepared" alright, but that all-synchro Datsun Gearbox
that Ulix has in there has already taken care of that.

"street prepared" (because one of those absent '67 Midgets is missing it's
drivetrain)

Ulix,
Big brakes are maybe not what you need- as you might already suspect. I
agree that there are plenty of things one should try first, e.g. braided
lines and good Hawk brake pads for low temp applications. The rear drum
brakes have to be in good shape and that will make a lot of difference.
I also think that when doing auto-x that bigger brakes would put you in a
very competitive fast SCCA class. Is it "prepared"?
Tschuess,
Gus
