I have their kit on my 56 Chevy for about ten year, all four corners. Best money spent on the old girl yet. I can safely handle Houston traffic without panic. The thing stops quickly in a striaght line with excellent lockup modulation. I've had one panic stop on the freeway from 60MPH and there was no fade.
My car has the stock six and powerglide so it's not going to tax the brakes like your souped 250 in a lighter Nova will. Still, I advise the use of this company's parts if anyone is going to keep four wheel drums.
