Re: Hey Ed!
I talked to Jim yesterday and I should have a set on the way on Monday for me to look over, approve, and get going. Some background to explain the delay. Jim bought the company and they also moved locations so he's had a bit of work to get through as well.
Moving forward though.

Re: Hey Ed!
I am moving to another vendor so I'll be starting the whole process over again but they should be less than what I was quoted for them initially. Sorry fellas, sometimes you gotta cut your losses and move on. I spoke with 3 different companies today and they all sounded competent.

Re: Hey Ed!
I understand, do what you have to do. Long story short, original vendor lost the lines along with my designs and such so now I have to start over from scratch. The conversion lines are on my list and I'll get to them when I can, I'm very busy at my full time job at this time and can't devote the time I'd like to R&D work.
I'll update as time allows, thank you all for understanding.

Re: Hey Ed!
UPDATE:
Since I have to start all over I scored a set of custom Wilwood e-brake cables so I can fab up my own lengths on both the LS1 and C5 rear conversion and get the designs to the new vendor. I hope to get on this sometime in July, sorry but that will be the earliest I can get a couple days to devote to it.
Thanks!

Re: Hey Ed!
On his site he lists the LS1 rear brakes for 82-92 Fbody with custom bolt-in e-brake cables available, so he probably got them figured out and forgot/unsubscribed to this thread.

Re: Hey Ed!
Any news? The kit on his site says it includes cables, but they are not listed seperatley. The kit also comes w/ new hard lines for the axle, why is this? Early thirdgens have the wrong fittings?
