BAER, BREMBO, Cobra or PBR (same thing)

98+ are fine but dont stop like 13" brakes.

I would go to the drags and talk to the guys running that time, and remember that if you hit 150mph, you need a shoot. Funny Cars and Top Fuel run tiny brakes

A company called "THE BRAKE MAN" makes a very cool light way drag racing brake set, uses alum caliper, and special rotors. He makes them for the mustang you may check him out.

Give Wilwood a try. They have been making drag race brakes for years along with Nascar and road race. Very light weight and strong

And they won't bust the bank!! like others

Aerospace Components.

I think USA Motorsports may be a dealer for them, they're in Texas.

Don't forget, you've got to have a 'chute at 13..135 now. Not 150.

2003 NHRA rule book still says 150. Just got it 3 weeks ago, so it is current.
