RE: Disc Brakes!

[Sean B <polecat2@xxxxxxxx>]

Yep, I did, George.  Chrysler engineers did tests in the '70's as to 
their added stopping power, and found it to be negligible.  Chrysler 
went ahead and offered them on some cars anyway, because Lincoln and 
Cadillac did, and the marketing hype for rear discs was already out 
there with those other makes.
