Brembo Rear Brakes
You miss the point entirely. That willwood is a single piston slider, what the car has now. So why do that?
What these guys want is a Brembo monoblock front and rear. For the rear, that means a rotor with drum in hat ebrake, or an electric ebrake monoblock caliper which runs a couple of grand plus the required electronic interfaces.

There is a kit that is already Available but it's a Willwood kit not Brembo. Definitely worth a look

you dont get it either. Read from the link you posted:
The Wilwood combo caliper functions just like the stock part and is easily adapted to the stock parking brake cable.
the folks mad for brembo's DO NOT WANT what they have now. A single piston sliding caliper.

I got some of these parts. Brembo make them. starting at 2.5k a pair for the rotors ONLY with drum floating hats.
no one here is going to spend 2.5 k for rotors and hats. still need the calipers and the ebrake conversion for the drum in hat

Imagine. lol. the Evo is where the caliper could come from. The caliper is the easy part. the ebrake is the hard part. along with a rotor that has an ebrake hat.

let me make it clear; the single slider GM supply made by ATE is very good; the Willwood single slider is equal to that, not better. A monoblock caliper cannot be made to be an ebrake activated part unless you use an hydraulic system to make that happen; these exist, are sold, but are ILLEGAL in all states and Canada.
so a drum in rotor system would be required. I got that. I posted pictures of that. I can make that. But not right now I am busy doing other orders, and this system I can develop later this fall when things slow down. The caliper will be prolly be Evo. Like GTI suggested.
If you have a disc brake rear beam you will need to change to drum brake beam or cut off the stock caliper mount ears or I gotta make yet another part to make it work.
all this drives the cost up.
the rear brake issue on an LNF is almost 100% in my view caused by either #1 poor maintenance, #2 bad pad material or #3 not using the brakes enough and #4 letting the car sit in the winter salt for long periods of time see #1
