Wilwood 69-74 Porsche 911 Front Powerlite Brake Kit 3in MT Drilled & Slotted - Black

If you're looking to significantly improve the stopping power and feel of your classic 1969-1974 Porsche 911, this Wilwood Powerlite front brake kit is a solid choice. This kit replaces your original front brakes with a more modern and capable system, designed to handle the demands of spirited driving and track use while still offering excellent performance for the street. It’s a comprehensive upgrade that addresses the braking system as a whole, aiming for a more consistent and powerful pedal feel.

At the heart of this kit are the Powerlite calipers, known for their compact and lightweight design, which helps reduce unsprung weight. These calipers work with large, two-piece rotors that feature both drilling and slotting. The drilling helps with heat dissipation, while the slots help to vent gases and dust away from the pad surface, ensuring consistent braking performance even under heavy use. The rotors are 11.75 inches in diameter and 1.25 inches thick, providing a larger braking surface area than stock. This kit includes everything you need to get these components installed, including the calipers, rotors, mounting brackets, and necessary hardware. The black finish on the calipers adds a clean, performance-oriented look behind your wheels.

When upgrading your braking system, it's important to consider the entire setup. This kit is designed to work with your existing master cylinder, but for optimal performance, especially if you're tracking the car, you might want to consider a brake fluid upgrade to a high-temperature racing fluid and potentially a proportioning valve to fine-tune the front-to-rear brake bias. Wilwood is a well-known name in performance braking, and this kit represents a significant step up from the original equipment for your vintage 911.
