Upgrading to late-model GM brakes provides ample braking power for a high-power car.
Retaining the original drum-style handbrake works well and avoids having to disassemble brake shoes and springs.
The 8HP gearbox handles up to 800 horsepower at the wheels and makes auto performance street cars extremely fast and popular.
Custom fabrication of gearbox and engine mounts is necessary to successfully fit a Barra engine and 8HP transmission into a Holden Monaro.
