BRMs on a drum brake car

#1 Post by Roland Paetsch »

Is it possible to mount clone 5" BRMs (Flat Four or SSP) without alterations on a drum brake 356? The dust cap may protrude but I can live with that.

Regards,
Roland

I have seen them before so I believe it should be no problem.

I have a friend who had them on his 1953 coupe several years ago.

That shouldn´t be a problem as the extra inch is on the inside, I believe!
