Just realized-in this thread:
ERA optional rear suspension strength?
-You have doubts about the strength of the available rears with a soild roller motor.
In
THIS thread you convinced yourself that single-piston, small rotor brakes will be just fine for your use. Why ask about a tougher rear and then decide brakes are no big deal??
Jeff-you're confusing yourself and chasing your tail.

Tip: Brent's your engine builder right? First, get frank with yourself about how you're gonna use the car. Then seek and TAKE his advice about engine, clutch and trans selection.
Then call Doug at ERA and tell him what you're buying and get HIS advice about rears and brakes. Drop preconceived notions you might have-they're not based on Cobra experience.
Asking here without a clear vision is just confusing you.
