CSP 4 Wheel Disc Conversion for 356

Hello,

New member here, hello. I am asking if any of you have experience with running CSP drum to disc conversion and if the track was widened by a little or a lot. Thanks. - David

Go to the 356 Registry website for some info on the drum to disc conversion. Lots of comments there.

I installed the CSP 4 WHEEL DISC BRAKES on my 1959 coupe. I believe that they widen the track approximately 1/2” per wheel in the front.

I have modified rear suspension on the rear so I don’t know the amount for the rear, but it was just a little.
I am running the vented brake rotor version and 15 x 6” wheels

Just did a full CSP 4 wheel disc brake conversion on my 1962 T6 356B Outlaw including their dual circuit master cylinder and couldn't be pleased more! No rubbing, no issues, and LOVE the stopping power vs the dear gods drum brakes it had on it!
