Default Brake conversion etc..

Trying to decide several things in relation to brake change. Planning on getting some discs for the front to start. main question is who has the best product for the right price. i have seen plenty of them out there from 6-1200 or so.


I got 14 in. cragars on the car right now how big of a rotor can i get/ I plan on getting some larger rims but how does it work out should i just wait. Do it all at once or no.


So basically any opinion as far as which company to buy from, what size package, do front and wait on back or wait to do it all at once.

All opinions and advice is appreciated.

and might end up getting a rebuilt block any suggestions on where to get it from. I am in northeast.

Thanks

Just do the froont and leave it. You don't need back disk brakes. I* have them only because I put a ford 9" in and they came with it. Then I had to put the front on as well. It stops!!!!
