427V8, I am near 77 years old. We have a 1994 Challenger on a F-53 stripped chassis. About 2 years ago the brakes began to lock up. I proceeded to rework all four wheels, all have disc brakes. The cost of rebuilt calipers was approx $50.00 each. The rebuild kits were $8.00 each. At my speed and help from the wife, (bleeding the system), the job took about two days. We have taken several trips since then and no problems.
Just be sure and use the heavy duty jack stands as suggested earlier. Your experience with autos will be very helpful and you shouldn't have any problems.
