Every once in a while I see someone selling grooved and slotted rotors on E-bay for less than $200 a pair.

I have hardly....HARDLY used stock replacement rotors that i ran on my car. Only a couple hundred miles, I ended up swapping to the 11 3/4" Cordoba rotors. Lmk if you are interested, I can look up which brand they were, can't recall off hand. Can mic them too.

for what it's worth I looked up a '71 at several places, the only "deal" was AutoZone at $73 each...knowing their quality I'd go with MEK's eBag deal...If your gonna drop a wad here is something I've never seen before at Summitt..I don't think the picture is accurate.
