Being these cars are so lite , I wonder about the advantage of 4 piston front disks vs cheaper single piston. This is probably my biggest dilemma at this point?
Ditto - I've been fussing with ~$400 for drilled and slotted 11" single piston kit, or double that (or more) for 4 piston SSBC, Wilwood, etc. My car is strictly a street cruiser, though I suppose at some point I may try a bit of autocrossing. The 9.25" Mustang II discs on the front of my car seem to do a decent job already, and my take is 11" drilled and slotted rotors with the large GM calipers will be a significant upgrade.

If I was planning on real track use I'd likely go multi-piston, but that's not likely as we have no local track, and none being planned (that I know of). OTOH, it's always nice to look through the wheels and see those red calipers, and they'd likely help a bit when it comes time to sell it.
