Upgraded to rear 11" Baer discs, need E-brake suggestions
1970 442 clone
I had to cut off my old E-brake lines from the rear drums.
Too much of a PITA to separate, so I need a new E-brake cable setup
for the new rear Baer calipers. I am sure some others have done rear disc
upgrades, so I'm hoping someone can suggest a new E-brake cable setup.
Any leads would be appreciated.
These are the new calipers. The front is to the left.

I doubt the old cables would have worked with these calipers anyway. You need the cables that fit the calipers. Unfortunately, I don't know if those will be the correct length to match up with your intermediate cable. You might want to consider swapping the entire brake cable setup over to one like the F-bodies (and most newer GMs) use, and eliminate the intermediate cable.
