<VV> Drum-Brake Upgrades, was shocks

My idea of a Corvair drum-brake upgrade is carbon-Kevlar shoes as sold by
the vendors and Porterfield. What I like best is their ability to brake when
wet. Better than that, I can hardly imagine, at least with drums.

Two things:

  - First, what company?  URL?
  - Second, a Corvair already outbrakes just about everything.  What are
you seeking?

You are correct that the late Corvair interchanges with early Chevelles
and the parts are easy to find.  What's wrong with the vendor kits?
