Which spindles are you using?
kevin2 Kevin which brake package are you using and are you looking to race the car or track it? I have seen 5 pin setups break and come apart. This is on the track. ERA has a great 12" brake and rotor combo and you can still run 15 wheels. The hub is billet./ I have 15+ years of racing on them and no problems or failures. They are also 6 pin. If you are running a SB ford motor the 5 pin will be OK. IF you are going with a FE motor or storker with more than 500/500 HP or torque, I would save the money and buy the stronger setup. I am not an engineer but 6 pins handling all that power easier than 5 pins. ERA has rear spindles also. I have never been a fan of adapter plates being added. IMO this has added more stress to system. I know you want the car togeather but with all the money you have in it now, whats a couple more months and another grand to have the strongest parts in the car. If you go with 5 pins, make sure you don't over torque the nuts to the studs that hold the spacers. Do a couple of road test and pull wheels and retorque them with a touch of blue loc-tite. Check them after a couple of road test for any play or loosness. Safety wire spinners on wheels and add the big clip to the hubs that safe hold on the spinners also. Good luck Rick L.
