b body spindle swap?

[greasy]

So i did a search and didn't find anything, but has anyone ever tried doing a B body spindle swap, to use big brakes up front, and instead of getting spindles from a salvage, bought drop spindles? i don't see why they wouldn't work, but i've finally decided to lay the car out, and will need drop spindles to do so, and i'd like to run a big rotor up front, but more than likely an aftermarked Wilwood kit to match the rear kit that is on the car. input?

If you mean use a B-body drop spindle & 12" IROC/WS6 rotors on aftermarket upper a-arms designed for the normal B-body spindle swap, I don't know if it's been done, but it's an interesting thought.

yes you are correct sir, i don't know why it wouldn't work. i do need drop spindles to lay the car out in the front, but don't know if i should get the wilwood kit for the camero, which seems to be a no brainer, or for the b body, thing that sux, is i hate cutting up brand new spindles, cause they have to been modified for the calipers to mount.......the rear's look so lonely without some on the front....lol......12" in rotors look small behind 20" wheels too!!! and i thought about 20" and 22" combo.....still kicking it around btw

I don't see why it would not work with the b body drop spindles. All the suspension mounting points would be in the same location as a stock b-body.
