67 imp front rotors

["mike and cindy becker" <mbecker30@xxxxxxxxx>]

Both my 67's front rotors are in fine shape and I followed your progress on
the supra rotors with interest. I wonder if the later model c-body rotors
are heavier and could give me some more braking capacity(for my trailer
towing 4dr imp) also with a change to c-body rear axles I could then have
more options  with the c-body bolt pattern wheels. I am not looking to
replace worn out parts, but to upgrade to something more heavy duty and more
option it the wheel department, Mike Becker
