Hey everyone. I hope everyone is having a good summer and putting lots of miles on thier cars.
I have finally saved enough to change the from brakes from drums to disc on our 1970 Tempest and was wondering if you need to change the master cylinder or can you just change the front end components. My master cylinder is only 2 years old now. How much should I expect to pay for a conversion kit?
Thanks Chris

Thanks for the info. Im hoping to have all of the parts this week. I love your car. You sure cant beat the look of a 1970 Pontiac. We have had ours since 2008 and have done lot of work to her. Most recent was a facelift to the interior. I found a pair of bucket frames and we rebuilt the seats and interior ourselves. We went with a 1969 interior as we liked the design in the seats vs the 1970 a a little boring.
'64 Parisienne CS "barn find" - last on the road in '86 ... Owner Protection Plan booklet, original paint, original near-mint aqua interior, original aqua GM floor mats, original 283, factory posi, and original rust.
Yes it is a 69 spoiler. We compared the 69 and 70 and we both like the smooth look of the 69. When we did the interior a few years ago we also decided on the 69 interior as we both liked the Y in the seat pattern vs the straight lines in the 70. When we were recovouring the seats is when we learned that the rear seat on a 69 is wider then a 70 so some trimming was needed to make it fir properly. Also the hood is a 69 factory hood that we picked up from Winnipeg. No matter what I love the chrome nose of the 70.
