David,
I just picked up the rear brake conversion kit by Stainless Steel Brakes, It
works on the 8 3/4 and dana rears.  I am using an 8 3/4 rear from a 70
charger. If your rear (like my old one) has the drums that fit to the axel
with a keyway and castle nut it may not work.  If you have the flanges axels
you should be in luck.  I got mine from Mancini Racing www.manciniracing.com
for $539.
Scott
