I'll try to dig some stuff up. I know I've come across several different setups, but didn't save any info on it as I'm planning to leave the rears basically stock (for now anyway). We'll see if I need to change them for better balance, but I know a lot of the Big Red guys leave the rears stock and just change the bias valve. Pretty sure some options require ebrake modification especially if going with a different size rotor.

Here's one option by 9Products (the guys I bought my adapters from):

Thanks. I'll let you know if what I'm doing is enough lol!
But the thread I referenced has several guys going this route and even looking at running a full 997 setup (sounds like it might have an even slightly larger rotor?). Going to dig through it some more but I haven't seen anything yet about changing out the MC or running a dual setup as T&T Racing suggests. We'll find out though.
