Cobra brake packs

Hi to everyone, I'm not too used to forums (or computers) so bare with me.
I have a part built AC Superblower. I am currently trying to source the parts to complete it. They were originally fitted with AP Racing brakes but I believe these are no longer available. My wheels/hubs are the 6 pin, knock off hub types you get on the Shelby/Kirkhams type cars. Would anybody know what brake packs (part numbers etc) that they use. They may be adaptable for my car. I think Shelby uses Baer but I do not know the specifications (ie disc/caliper part numbers). I think Kirkham use Wilwood, but again I don't know the specifics. Can anybody help?
Many thanks
Gary

Being unfamiliar with this model I will throw out a couple of questions to aid in generating some answers. What rear end/differential setup is being used. Independent (Jag/Corvette) or live axle such as Ford? What wheel diameter?

Hi Rick,
My car has a Jag rear diff and 16 inch whels, although I would prefer the 15 inch Halibrands. I hope this helps you.
Regards
Gary
