67 4K L78 Camaro
 
Friend of mine has a 67 4K Camaro L78 - end of the yr 67 production car.

It's a project car, and we were discussing the brakes.

What was the brake configuration for this car?

Drum with Master - #?
Drum with Power Booster Master - #?
Was disc an option at all ??

Appreciate the insight to this.

The 4K cars I’ve seen through the years could have any of the configuration you mentioned. Mostly see drum brake. My car is power disc, I think Jose’s black car is power disc.

Mine has non-power disc brakes.

enio45 10-03-2025 06:45 PM

if power disc, what booster number are u using?

canam 10-03-2025 07:52 PM

L78 discs
 
My L78 conv.came with disc brakes minus power assist

Booster # 8515. Hard one to locate and they bring top dollar.

enio45 10-03-2025 11:09 PM

8515 I would assume to be for both disc and drum....?

Hmm 🤔 not sure about that.

luzl78 10-04-2025 12:42 AM

i believe 8515 is power front disc only 0749 is the booster for drum brakes 1109 is the booster number for drums with metallic shoes

A 4K Camaro could also have metallic brake linings for the drums front and rear. The master cylinder for that combination is coded AU.

Thank you everyone for your input -

Eddie, If you choose to go with disc brakes, you will need to find "DG" 14x6 rally wheels. Rally wheels (ZJ7) was part of the disc brake package in 1967 & not a stand-alone option....Joe

enio45 10-04-2025 03:47 PM

ok good point Joe, let me advise him of these details

My 67 L78 has non power disc brakes. Stamped AD
