Hello, I'm new to the forum.   I bought at 1948 Dodge Business Coup that has a scarebird dusc break conversion.  I have looked at their website and I can't determine if it has the budget or non budget conversion.   The bracket looks more like the budget,  but the caliper looks like chevy celebrity the non budgets uses....

Here is the car for those interested...has the Ford Explorer rear end in it.  

 

I'm rebuilding a Buick 350 to put in it along with the TH350 transmission that came out of a 1976 Buick LeSabre

On their website photos it looks like the budget bracket has a “D10” marked into it and the non-budget bracket has “F15” marked on it.

You may need to contact them. They are under new management in the past year so looks like they offer different conversion kits than in the past. I installed one of their conversion kits almost 10 years ago. Over time their kits and parts recommendations have changed based on what parts were affordable and commonly available at the time. So, what is on your car now may not be what they carry now.

I will probably have to call them if I want to to know.   I crawled under the car again and one of them is marked DGE FXM..or maybe FXY...that last letter wasn't very readable.
