My Envemo body is already in Indo.. Pan, interior and mechanicals to leave this month. Decided it's better to add Wilwood Discs and rebuilt my front suspension and steering here Stateside before I ship. Looking for So CA shop to do this.. Anybody have any experience with Russell at Old Speed - Paramount, CA.. Rickie Wright (Wright Gearbox) recommended him.. The front end is in Baldwin Park. Or anybody have any recommendations? thanks in advance..

Coolrydes Customs. Kevin is a member here and does use Wilwood discs on his builds.
IIrc Russell (and Old Speed) have a good reputation on The Samba, but checking the Feedback forum (as always) would be wise. As Bill said, Kevin at Coolrydes would be worth looking into as well, as he is familiar with Wilwood's products having used them bugs as well as Speedsters. There should be a feedback thread on Kevin as well. Al
Russell is good. Give him a deadline. There are several options. Russell does a lot with 944 brake setups and the other options are CSP or airkewld have several brake kits available.
The suspension shop may need your wheels to select a Wilwood brake size for clearance. If the wheels are already in Indo, you may be able to tell them the wheel brand, size and offset for brake recommendations. Many shops will want to physically mount the wheel to check clearance.
Nice brakes...CoolStops have been said to be the best on the market today....
