1955 disk brake conversion

[Tater Salad]

Looking to update the stopping power of my 55. Does anyone have any info on Pol.com (parts online) conversion kits?
They appear to use the common GM calipers and pads. My concern is the availability of the bearings, seals, and rotors. Has anyone used or delt with this company?

I would suggest you go with the kit that used the four piston caliper. Not sure who makes them though

Four piston caliper on the old birds? I haven't seen any offers of those. Anymore details?

Wilwood makes them
