KH80012 Help!

70_440-6Cuda · May 09, 2023, 05:25:14 PM

Hey all, since I have a Wilwood conversion on my car I have nothing to compare to, but from what I can research the original disc brake set up for a '70 E body is caliper mounted on the front side of the disc with the bleeder nipple in board and at the top as in the first photo, correct?

If that is in fact correct, then the caliper on the left in the second photo is a driver side caliper (KH 78933 and incorrect for my application).

Just trying to make sure I hunt down the correct side I need - thanks

Yes front mounted with the bleed screw inside & on top otherwise the air cannot get out

KH 78933 caliper should be for a 69 - 73 C body
