    However, you're already talking bs and the truck is on jack stands, lol.
    Get it on the track, run some respectable times, then say "to all the haterz" because that vid is weak lol.
    You got a long ways to go to compete with the turbos!

    This isnt recommended for street use because of the wimpy rotors. But, depending on the bolt pattern, ZO6 rotors and calipers just might work-or be modified to work...

    This kit is designed for the Strange brakes. ZO6 etc rotors wont bolt on. Its designed to lose 85 lbs off the front and be a drag brake option.

    when stopping at 160mph how many passes do you feel these rotors will last?
    2002 Lightning - GT headed 5.5Litre w/ Twin 7665s
    2002 Silverado - 427Lsx w/ Twin gt4202s
    2010 Silverado crewcab Z71 - 5.3litre w/ procharger
    2000 Wrangler - 5.3litre with some stance
    2014 Xsport- 3.5 Eco boost
    412 Motorsports

    it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference

    Lightweight is all nice and dandy but when dealing with over 2 tons you need mass to stop. For 1300 it would suck to pay that amount or close to it every race

    Just to save 80lbs now if these can last a season that isn't so bad
    2002 Lightning - GT headed 5.5Litre w/ Twin 7665s
    2002 Silverado - 427Lsx w/ Twin gt4202s
    2010 Silverado crewcab Z71 - 5.3litre w/ procharger
    2000 Wrangler - 5.3litre with some stance

    I dont see a problem if you take care of them lasting a season. I have a couple 4000 lbs Camaros running them and we have seen any issues with pads or rotors. Obviously with someones truck running over 150mph the NHRA/IHRA required parachute would make everything last longer.
